Canon EOS 3, 400 5.6, 1.4x Povia100@200 1/125 F-8
When I stubled across a young fawn that had been taken down, I spent a good 20 min scouring the landscape with binocs looking for the culprit. Just about to give up I , I noticed a little "lump" toward the edge of a clearing with a lot of fly's buzzing around. Moving closer I saw this guy napping, stomach distended from gorging himself coutesy of a good mother . Took a few shots but the EOS3, (even in stealth mode :0) ) was noisy enough to wake him up. I'm pretty sure I was the first human being he ever saw as he looked quite puzzeled about what to make of me. He walked off after a few minutes and I followed him right to the den and the other four pups. This guy is the "runt" of the litter. Much smaller than the other four. Seems the bigger guys like to nip him on the ears. Saw them on and off for the next three weeks until the elusive side of their personality kicked in. Steve
