[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a common deer in the Columbia River Gorge, a Mule Deer. So named because of its large ears and ability to move them independantly of each other. They also have this very characteristic stiff legged jump where they can bridge large distances. They can reach an impressive speed of up to 30 miles per hour, they are at their best in rough, broken country. The longest bounds (up to 28 feet in length) are made when deer descend a hill. Mule deer also are excellent swimmers. Along the Hanford Reach, female deer frequently swim out to the Columbia River islands, where they give birth to their fawns.

Hello Julie. Nice shot. The detail on the tree is very good. Also love the colours in the back ground- the purples and the greens.
TFS.
Kind regards,
Robert

Very nice. Is it blurred on purpose? Either way, it looks great. Nice colors and focus. TFS
