Also on the heath were a large number of Red deer in small groups scattered over the landscape which were predominately females, alone or with older juveniles. All of these were very wary and did not allow close approach but one female with her youngster did walk by as I was sitting in the heather waiting for the Dartford Warblers to show. At one point a Magpie flew down and landed on the back of the juvenile before hopping up onto the head of the female, I just had to get a picture of that. One of my targets for the year is to try and get some photographs of the deer up on the heath when the heather is in flower, I think that would look really good.
