Request for Deer Recognition Photos

[csl]

People have frequently asked where they can find resources to aid deer recognition so it would be useful if we could put together a good selection of images we can use to produce a page.

Ideally, for each species of deer, we'd need photos showing those deer together with their identifying features. We'd need photos of both summer and winter coats (and any variations) and of both sexes.

For example:

• Sika showing hock glands
• Fallow with long tail/adams apple/tassle on the pistle etc
• Roe doe with tush

So if anyone has photos of deer which clearly shows their identifying features and which you have taken (or own the copyright to) and wouldn't mind us using we'd be very grateful if you could add them into this thread.

We will of course credit your username on here for all photos that are used.

many thanks,

Alex

Thanks Lakey!

I've fixed the first post. There was some broken hyperlinking in there from somewhere.

In photobucket just copy the IMG code for the photo, then just past it into your post

e.g. [noparse]

[/noparse]

then it should work fine!

thanks again!

Can I just make a suggestion that we put the description underneath the picture, that way when you look at the picture you can try to identify it before you read what it is
