It will soon be time for the big lads to show each other who is boss. The rut tends to start at the end of September and lasts for a couple of months and is a real bonus if you get to see it.
In the evening, as the Sun goes down, the air is filled with the haunting sound of the stags making there presence known and the crash of antlers is never far away.
The Isle of Purbeck is a peninsula on the southern tip of the the county of Dorset in England. The photographs I take, hopefully, help to express how I feel about this magical place and show you things which you may see if you come to visit. I am a full time, professional photographer and have a gallery in Swanage. Please feel free to click on the picture to see it larger or to look at my other photographs. www.purbeckfootprints.co.uk

We have a large herd of Fallow deer at the "Big House" where I volunteer. All summer the bachelor herd of 30 or so have been down by the house. They will soon not be quite such good friends, I suspect!
