Foxes, stags, and hares can venture out on a Spring morning without fear of the red coats and their packs of hounds. |
Some of the young stags early in a hunt may turn and stand at bay for short periods as a sort of posturing, as it were, to the hounds. |
I camped high in the glen, with a golden eagle and a clutch of red deer stags for company. |
Herds of 14 fallow deer are regularly seen in the area north of Braintree, with fine stags among them. |
During the rut in October and November you can hear the stags belling or roaring. |
I love to hear the seasonal sounds of migrating geese and I still feel moved by the primeval belly-roars of stags in a Highland glen. |
