White-tailed Deer

This is one of the deer in the family of three that I posted two days ago. In the afternoon of 20 July 2017, the smoke haze from the B.C. and Alberta wildfires seemed to have lifted somewhat, so I took a drive along some of my favourite roads SW of the city, seeing a few of the 'usual' things. Any cows and deer that I have been seeing recently have so many flies on them. It looks like she was near me, but she was way across a huge field.
In between photographing Mountain Bluebirds, I drove part way along a road that I had only ever been on once before, and that was quite recently. Usually, I am home earlier than I was on this particular day. This later time meant that I was lucky enough to see two families of deer - White-tailed and Mule Deer. A short distance before seeing this deer, I had seen a Mule Deer doe with her fawn standing at the edge of the road. I pulled over way down the road and waited till they had safely crossed. Managed to get a couple of distant shot through the windscreen, with the usual poor quality results. I knew that there would be a barbed-wire fence the far side of the road and I didn't want to spook them and risk them getting tangled in the sharp barbs. Several years ago, I had seen a huge Moose get spooked and then get briefly tangled in barbed wire - it spooked when it suddenly realized that some cows had quietly come up behind it!
