From a distance it was difficult for me to see that this was a Whitetail Buck beginning to grow new antlers. I at first thought it was a Doe because it was with a couple of them.
The Whitetail Buck was in a field (Dockery Field) near the auto tour road which is at the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma.
I stopped in the road and the Buck continue to walk in my direction. I was able to get several photos before it turned and left the field with the two Does.
My camera and lens were resting on a bean bag draped over the open window of my pickup.
