Run for your life!

Exactly what I was doing.... once this deer spotted me, I went towards the forest to see if I could get closer... only to have the deer jump out behind a tree onto the path 1 metre in front of where I was standing.

It stopped stunned and looked at me for a few seconds and then ran off. I was so lucky it didn't decide to attack me! My dogs were bewildered!

I've never been so close to a deer before! I just wish I wasn't so scared to take a photo of it in front of me! I was frozen!
