I consider that day as to be one of my most rewarding hunts.That stag is actually looking at me/my shape and if any **** wants to argue that proper camo isn't effective well they can do with a few lessons.

Caught out in the open.

You'll be getting overrun with them at this rate.

I put a lot of time in on them. The camera doesn't tell you about crawling though tussock on knees in summer in Australia lol. The viewers only get the end result not the pain.
Fuck me mate,on hands and knees you never know when Mr Brown is gonna be around the next tussock. At least standing up ya get a better view.

Yeah I know Gryph. it's bloody hard to find one, let alone photograph one. then there sneaking up on 5 sets of eyes...

Been watching a feel reels from Sunshine Coast snake catchers. Man those browns are fast! And sneaky. Fuck living with them around. Id be carrying a 410 everywhere.

And now Im starting to wonder about you sending me into that long grass with a shovel to find the one the postie was worried about.

Did I mention on here that I saw movement and looked down thinking a little scrub wren was frigging around under my computer table in the shed? It was a farkin brown snake two feet from my left foot. About a week ago.

four in this pic but there are five sets of eyes in that bush.

amazing how deer blend in. even in light cover with a bit of shade

See the velvet head bumps to the left of the furthest left one? Between the tree stalks.

Shanks, what do you reckon? I think she has pinkeye.

Hard to tell. Id expect to see more gunk and a whiter colouration with more weeping.

They are pretty blue and milky which is not so evident inthe pic

Man that looks dry.

its as dry as a witches tit in parts Shanks. The berries are green especially along the creeks but sambar being sambar they still stay in good order.
I have notice young calves on the ground from a month ago..way out of order mind you.

People are feeding out all over and the ave temps are over 30 for another week.

Btw that hind above has twins in that dry country and shes doing pretty bloody good.

Id guess the sambar has a stomach that can deal with dry rough feed?

All the deer species can handle it if thats all they have.

Sprung early today.




This girl is walking on air.

Man that photo is amazing!

I did take a lot of snaps Shanks and the scene was pretty fukn good to witness.Nice to get some light for a change.

The light, and the gnarly gum and the background. Its a great composition.

Outstanding pics Gryph, as usual.
Hope you're still getting some work done while all this photographing is going on - haha
