365daysofbiking Ladies, please:
October 7th – I was also hacked off I was without a functioning camera when I witnessed this – something I’ve never seen before. Female deer, arguing.
At Chasewater, my light scared a group of red deer off the dam path down on to the dam itself. They were all females of varying ages, and there was some jockeying for position as they hurried away.
In these three photos you can see the two deer of the left square off, one refuse to defer to the other, then they both buck and kick each other.
It was over in an instant, but the sound of their feet clattering against each other is something I’ll not forget.
Neither is the spectacle of two female red deer, bickering.
