On Tuesday morning (Feb. 13), I traveled to the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma mainly to photograph the whitetail bucks I had been seeing in a certain area of the refuge. As you can see in my photo that I am sharing this morning, I was successful. The three bucks in my photo were a distance away, but I like the photo because it gives you an idea what some of this refuge looks like. The field they are standing on is overgrown, but this will soon change when the farmers prepare it for a summer crop of soybeans or corn. The trees in the background will also soon change by growing green leaves. I noticed some of the trees at this refuge are already developing buds. You will also notice these bucks have not shed their antlers yet.

This photo is absolutely stunning. The glowing light is perfection, the buck White-tailed Deer are beautiful. I feel as though I could walk right into this image.
Thanks my friend!
