And THIS is the sort of shot I’ve been searching for in three Saturdays in a row of getting into the national park before dawn to try to set-up for decent views of the local feral deer population.

I think this is a chital deer (Axis axis), despite the lack of spots on this particular individual.

Scheyville National Park, out to Sydney’s west.

A bit noisy in the blacks - the light was still low and it was a bit foggy.

Now why didn't we think of tempting the blasted fox that's plaguing our existence at the moment with a fake Harvey Norman VIP night!

At 10.30pm / 12.30am, again at 2.00am and around 5.00am over night, when the evil bastard usually sets off the security cameras around the poultry yards, rather than chasing it with a bloody big stick I'm going to try pitching fake invites at it, with the fox trap set up inside the door of the address...
