Shirl | Thanks, Shirl. My home village is in Beds but it's on the county boundary with Herts, so I do a lot of walking there. I visit Ashridge a lot, on the Herts/Bucks border, where there are a lot of Muntjac and several hundred Fallow deer.
I've enjoyed seeing the photos of Roe deer on this thread, as I've very rarely seen them in this part of the country. |

It's right in the middle of a town too, by a supermarket car park and with all sorts of noise going on. But I've been watching a colony there for three years now. |

Ahh what a cutie. I've only seen one this year and that was at a distance. Plenty of foot prints though. Glad to hear your colony are doing fine. I must check out your blog again and see what the latest news is.

Isn't it gorgeous, they really are and have been so active this year I reckon won't be long for those little ones to appear. Here's one of mine from yesterday's expedition to the canal

PS Got the top of the water shrews back too! Not worth showing I am afraid |

I was awing at the smashing water vole shot, Shirl. The shrew business makes me jealous beyond the power of speech.  |
