Mind focused on the details of the recipe, I had been several minutes picking bilberries before becoming aware of the silent watchers nearby.
Bracken provides such excellent cover that you can easily walk past them unaware. Even when you do see them you miss the sight of the beautiful red coat, at its best at this time of year.
These stags were some thirty yards away. I had been watching them for some time before realising another even bigger stag was closer, again partly hidden by the wet vegetation and calmly munching rowan leaves.
