I've got them all in this one post!
Two days after I saw the majestic 8 point buck in the previous post, I saw another one!
I was about 10 miles away on a different trail and caught sight of a deer in the brush.
I got off the trail (taking my first photo while walking!) and followed a deer trail.
The buck stopped and took a few steps toward me to warn me to go no farther.
Behind him, was his whole family!
7 deer....which included this precious fawn!
What a neat sighting!
I took a close up of each of the 8 point bucks to see them side by side and they are definitely two different deer.
Lots of wildflowers blooming at this time of year.
The Dotted Horsemint is one of my favorites.
It has the best minty scent.
This one isn't quite as pink but it shows the dots better.
It's a beautiful time to get out in the woods here in Florida!
Come on down!
Great White Egret high in the sky!

you already know I have never seen a deer in the wild, now I also have never seen that stunning horsemint flower... my favorite today is the header, although the bucks face is a 2nd close.. awesome photos and story and what an adventure all in one hike
...Dotted Horsemint is a new favorite of mine. Take care and be well.
you are so lucky to see so many deer in the wild. up here, the bucks have already lost their headdress, the antlers can be found while walking in the woods. the dotted horsemint is new to me, i like the colors, the shape and the dots, that's a pretty one!! beautiful capture of the eget and that bright blue sky...that's a great picture!!
Fantastic catch of the deer. I love the wildflowers. It always makes me think that is why Ponce De Leon named Florida the Land of Flowers.
