Beautiful photo. Brought back memories of a hunt I was on in Montana a few years back. I was sitting on a knoll just watching a deer trail below, when a good size 3X3 buck comes in, alone. He was so lathered up and wore out from fighting/rutting he couldn't even hold his head up. I hadn't seen many other deer that day, but I just couldn't shoot him. Just watched him head for his bedding area and said to my self, "get some rest fella, your day will come soon enough". I shot an even nicer buck the next day, so everything worked out well.
