Red Deer Rut

Nice early start for todays session at Margam to photograph my first Deer Rut with Mike Warburton. Started off really foggy and didn't really clear fully till it was time to clear but still had some great opportunities. They weren't easy though! Spent a lot of time walking up and down the mountain trying to stay ahead of the herd as the dominant male was chasing off any rivals. 

I had a fantastic time though and I hope that I can return soon once my recording gear is fixed so I can record the incredible bellowing sound.
