Richmond upon Thames: the view from London's "Arcadia" along the River Thames in Southwest London.
Here he is. A handsome "5 pointer" enjoying his fresh blackberries (thorns included), and so engrossed he took no notice of me.
It's hard to imagine that in about 8 weeks time he'll be a brawling woman crazy stag warning everyone to keep away.

Very nice close-up!
ReplyDeletegreetings
His ears look like someone chewed them.
ReplyDeleteAfter he's done with the blackberries he'll be after the shrubbery in your yard!
ReplyDeleteAnd are the lady stags just as interested? Who could turn down such a beautiful creature?
ReplyDeleteChuckeroon gets a mention on Menton DP today...
Oh gosh isn't he magnificent! Those blackberries must have tasted very nice if he didn't see you..
ReplyDeleteThe noise they make in the mating season is unbelievable.
He looks impressive!!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful animal.
