Albino Whitetailed Deer

@Marcie: Isn't he just gorgeous? :^)

@beth: *LOL* His office is in the medical center. I just cut through this area on my way there.

It was great to see them the second time through. The first time, I was shooting directly into the rising sun, and the flash caused their eyes to be too glowy to even correct easily (especially this fellow's light-colored eyes). But the sun was a little higher when I saw them again, so it was easier to shoot without the flash at all.

@Michelle: Thanks, Chelle.

You're just sayin' that 'cause your my sister. ;^)

@Lee: I think that's a first, Lee - that I've seen something you haven't. ;^)

As I've said, they're really not all that rare around here. I have seen many over the years - mostly only one per year, but sometimes seeing the same one several times within a year. I'd like to know, though, how long they live. I've mostly seen young ones. Thankfully, this one is in a no-hunting area.

@Lambspun: Thanks, Lambspun.

@B. Thomas: Thanks, Barbara. I'm hoping I'll cross paths with them again - quite possibly even tomorrow morning (yet another early morning appointment) - but I refuse to go searching for them. Chance encounters are all the more special. :^)

@Mindy | f-stopMarin: Thanks, Mindy. :^)

@MMC Photos: Thank you.

@Jane: Thanks, Jane. :^)

@Sarah: Thanks, Sarah.
