Kaipaith said:This should have been a much better picture than it was. My route home (or about 50% of it) passes through the countryside. Maybe three cars will pass me the whole way.
I see a wide variety of animal life. The family of peacocks on the way in to work are my current favourites.
Tonight, just as the sun was setting, I spotted a stag making his way across a field. I should have been able to get closer, and it should have been better lit were I able to reposition myself.
Sadly my brakes squeeked at the most inopportune moment, and all I managed to get was this. You can barely see him, but he's there.

Bollo said:I was out at the weekend past Farley Mount and there was a (....looks up collective noun for deer...) herd or leash of about 40-50 out in the open. They're a reasonably common sight on the lanes around Winch and Romsey. I've had two near misses where they've panicked and legged it across the road into woods, but I've never managed to catch it on camera.
Yeah me!Kaipaith said:Nicely done! Yes - it is. It's a touch more downhill on the route back from Winchester to Romsey. Normally I go through Braishfield on the way in.
Yes, to be fair this isn't the first sighting I've had. It was the first sighting which had potential to be a half decent photo if the brakes hadn't made a racket.
It's a nice route. Not the best in the world, but I wouldn't trade it either.
I love flyfishing and that looks wonderful. Which river is it? Did you see him catch any trout or greyling?Bollo said:Here's one....
