Mule Deer


I do not bill myself as a "wildlife photographer." I have never had the leisure to spend the time waiting for some animal to stick its head out of its hole. But I have taken some opportunity shots over the years and this is one of them. Usually, the shots don't come out as well as this one. I attribute this shot to a good 300 mm telephoto lens that got me close enough to get a good picture without camera movement. If I ever get out into the mountains or the desert again, I will always be keeping my eyes open to the opportunity shot of the wildlife. By the way, this is a mule deer, very common in Arizona and Utah. This shot was taken in Bryce Canyon National Park.
