Check out the blood on his antlers! That is an incredible shot! He must have just shed the "fuzz".

Of course that's Buck :whistle:

The secret is N a t i o n a l P a r k s !!!

Move slowly...stay erect...errrrrr I mean don't crouch or sneak like a predator would do when stalking. Move in and out...errr I mean don't make a B line for the deer weave around a bit. Also when their ears are perked up.... I reach over and pull a little grass once in a while, like I'm grazing with them, rubbing it between my fingers in a chewing motion.
I know it sounds weird...but it works :paranoid:
