    Roadside wildlife

    To those on here that enjoy wildlife photography.

    I started a thread in the main hunting section called 'Deer on the side of the road'.

    However, I have a pile of photo stuff being a mixture of small game, deer or whatever?
    So I have decided to start a new thread in the photo section on here.... enjoy.
    Feel free to add your own roadside wildlife photography here also.

    Good spotting. The bigger stag in the middle there actually had an eartag, escapee from somewhere!

    Camera technologies....
    Obviously cameras have come a long way since they were invented.
    Wildlife photography cameras wise is so easy these days compared to camera film days in the past?
    The future of camera technology can only be speculated, meaning more pixel photo density to come?

    More roadside photos... a common occurrence.

    I drove through the North Wairarapa just out from Makuri and photographed this goat on the side of the road.
