    Nice one. Got a couple with similar tops, probably related if they're from where I think they are

    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    Shot this buck early on Saturday morning. He came out off the bush and straight to me after a few calls.
