Swede’s Photographs<p>Dappled Beginnings</p><p>I came across four white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) this morning while Charlie and I were out on our walk. The doe stood watchful, her head raised as three polka-dotted fawns grazed quietly at the edge of the forest. She clearly saw us—me and Charlie—but seemed to sense that we posed little threat. Still, as we passed, the fawns slipped into the woods with calm precision, no panic, just a gentle retreat. I wished I’d had my other camera with me—it has twice the range, and the deer were pretty far off. But the lens on that setup is so long, I’d look like one of the Three Musketeers, strolling along with a rapier slung at my side.</p><p>Discover nature's fleeting moments through my lens—visit my photo gallery to see more.</p><p><a href="https://swede1952-photographs.pixels.com" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">swede1952-photographs.pixels.c</span><span class="invisible">om</span></a></p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photo</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photographer</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographylovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photographylovers</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wildlife</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/animals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>animals</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/mammals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mammals</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/deer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>deer</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/WhiteTailedDeer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WhiteTailedDeer</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/fawns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fawns</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/doe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>doe</span></a></p>
