Scene to Enjoy

Those of us who've known Blacka for many years are overjoyed to see the return and now persistent presence of red deer.

The picture below was taken by Craig who found this blog by googling after he had been surprised to be confronted by a stag. It shows the stag and two hinds - the group that are seen more often than any others these days. This is Blacka at its best, the winter sun highlighting the colour of the dead bracken as it blends with the coats of the deer.



To us it's a pleasure to find the serious return of the deer. I know that an item on the news recently raised alarms about the increase in numbers of deer. That I believe has more to do with shots in a campaign to get the return of stag hunting in the south west should the opposition win the next general election.
