So here I am last week driving along Skyline Drive and low and behold, here's this buck walking down the road like a hitch hiker on his way to the local 7-Eleven to pick up some java...

Hey said, "Sure thing, here's my good side".

His friends further down the road were'nt so social...they turned tail as soon as I tried to strike up a conversation. :lol:

Thanks! It was amazing...that 9 point buck was about as tame as you could ever imagine in the wild. Me and two other photographers just sat against that wall some 30 feet away while he dragged his nose in the ground for about 30 minutes.
