WordPress weekly photo challenge, Fray.
I was just thinking of another meaning. Of how deer fray the velvet off their antlers to mark territory. And I was thinking of how I sat in the grass at Charlecote Park and watched the male roe deer grazing. And, as I sat there, a small group came running down the meadow to join the larger group. They rubbed antlers, smelt noses and accepted each other.
A fray of sorts.
For the wordpress weekly photo challenge, Fray.

What cool looking deer. I’ve never seen any like these. They are amazing and your photos really show off their beauty.
Veronica
Thank you so much Ida. They’re storybook deer, aren’t they? π

How cool! I thought deer only had spots as fawn, but these are very cool.
Veronica
North American deer grow out of them, don’t they? But these roe deer have them always. π

I saw that definition, but didn’t know anyone would use it. Love the photos, Veronica.

I just want to rub those velvety antlers!!
Veronica
Me too, but they’re a bit bigger than Bambi, and a bit wild. π Wonder if they drop their antlers in winter…hmmm.
dawnsrays
Oh, wouldn’t that be wonderful to get a set of them after they dropped. Wow, the things you could do with a pair, haha

Oh my gosh, it really was. I can’t describe the feeling of sitting in that grass watching them graze just a few feet away from me. π
