HIGH TAILING


Spotted these girls on the other side of a canyon while taking a morning hike. I  just sit down and watched them for a good while when all of a sudden they began staring intently behind them. Some percieved danger had their full attention!



Using my binoculars I was never able to locate what had them so nervous. This activity went on for a good ten minutes before I stood and gave a loud whistle. All eyes and ears, even the two headed doe, were on me!



A couple of arm waves and the whole bunch were High Tailing it to the top of the ridge and out of sight in just a moment or two!

Pics were taken at 200mm focal length and all were extremely cropped! Poor quality photos but were lots of fun taking!

  3. Two headed doe, that's a great shot!!

    I agree with texwisgirl, the color of the grass really adds to the photos.

  4. The first two photos just like a painting. I don't think is a poor quality at all. Good Work!

  5. First of all, very nice pictures! Especially knowing that they are extremely cropped.

    Secondly I have to admit that though I have used the term "High tailing" in conversation many times over the years I never knew where the expression came from until just now!
