A Mid-Week Visit To SNP...

Last week I went to Shenandoah National Park for the first time in the summer. In fact I had never been to SNP before the rut last year but since then I have been to the park four times. I went to the park in hopes of photographing antler growth on the bucks and fawns. Of course I would have been more than pleased with some black bear, turkeys and bobcats. The plan called for three days and two nights but that changes to two days and one night. It was a successful trip and I probably should have stayed the extra day and night. More on this trip in the future. I will leave you with these two young bucks playing in big meadows last Thursday morning.

It is Tuesday so please visit Shane's blog for a new post.

Great shot. Like looking at the wildlife on your site. Keep up the good work.

You captured that beautiful early morning light that I am so fond of at SNP in the summer. Of course I like the bucks too. I need to make another trip.

The Park had an excessively harsh winter and I'm relieved to see these guys appearing very healthy. Please keep the shots coming.
