Young Buck (Red Dear)

Some times you approach these creatures and they sense,smell or hear you from miles away.This one ,I managed to get within 50 feet of,and he still was not concerned! The rest of the herd were almost a mile away,on a hill the other side of the valley.
It is the 'Rutting Season I was told,so maybe he took on one of the Elders and took a whipping?
Taken with my new D800 fitted with the Sigma 150-500 @ 500mm.
''I was honored to be in his company''! Amazing creature!
