And on the wrong side too. I can't shoot on there, it's private land. But there's a good chance he will come over into the bush for hinds during the roar.

This is the one I saw last year in the same place in the velvet.

If you look closely he is one of those reds with the genitic fault of having a bent face. He's not the first one I have shot like that, but in a different area.
