Blades of grass.
Everything else is normal and ok.

If you catch deer with egg clusters like that you're supposed to throw them back in

@Charlie just a thought, but as this comes up once a month, could this thread be made a sticky with a title ‘Dark red internal nodes’. May assist people and prevent the same thing being asked so often.

(No dig at the OP)

A good idea - a sticky of the most common issues(/non-issues) is on my to-do list even if it is just a couple of pictures of things like these or fluke with the relevant term to get people's investigations started.

What should we add to the list?

Bovine TB photos most certainly as thankfully, most of us do not regularly encounter them

Sure @WW. @Buchan et al will probably be well-placed to advise.

Happy to assist where I can. Suspect there are at least a couple of other vets on here besides us two based on some of the posts. Initially I'd say have.
1. Example of 'normal'
2. Odd/unusual stuff that's normal
3. Diseases. First and foremost TB. Various parasites. Joint diseases. Enlarged lymph nodes. Abscesses. Old wounds.

TBH good start is found in the DSC handbook- it's not perfect but is a good start.
