I think this qualifies as adolescent. He's not that reddish colour of the babies, though he wasn't that much bigger in size.

Sigma 50-500, Sensia 100, Window mount.

I like the motion of the jaw.

This is a nice shot Paul! I like the crop and the excellent detail to be seen - including the budding horns, the fly in the corner of the eye, the eye contact and the chewing motion of the mouth.

Really like this one Paul... Just the perfect light and exposure. Tons of detail and the nice little chewy chewy blur... Well done and thanks for a motif shot..

Paul, a winner in my book, as you know I like a hint of motion in my imagery.

Stay warm

Excellent color and detail. I too like the motion in the jaw.

Caught in mid-snack- the mark of any growing youngster. Neat shot for all of the reason already covered. The crop works well- I always debate where to cut an animal off in the frame.

the motion really looks good and it seems to make the background have a dreamy effect that takes you to the top of the frame and then the eye catches you again.
