Static

As in previous years the month of March for the local deer seems to be a time of minimum activity. The two stags on the edge of the woods did not move at all as they watched us go slowly past in early morning drizzle.

The beast partly hidden had the bigger crown and showed no inclination to change his position to pose for a picture.

Antlers start to fall any time now and there may be some hormonal change going on that also affects behaviour.
