In the calm before the storm

It was back to Tibbetts at the beginning of February and instead of the hoped-for snow, the weather was mild and damp. While storm Imogen was still clearing her throat and hitching up her skirts out in the mid-atlantic, we went for a mini yomp north of the three quarter wall in the calm before the storm. Our resident deer stalker, David of the Oddy, soon sniffed out this stag and his parcel of lovely hinds. We had encounters with them throughout the morning before they finally ran off in the direction of the old light. Result. (Click on the pix to make them awesome).
