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.

Attachment 215282
I drove down the road and spotted and photographed this lot....
Good for you Ryan for posting your West Otago crop raiders.... I hope they don't eat to much.
That boy has some heavy looking timber. Whats the red thing on the back of the head of that stag in the 2nd photo @Ryan_Songhurst? Can't quite make it out on my phone
Good spotting. The bigger stag in the middle there actually had an eartag, escapee from somewhere!Quote:

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.

More rabbits.... :P
I'm doing this for technical reasons, meaning how well do they display?
Attachment 246225
Just like anyone else I have a 48 inch 4k television, so I have put a collage together of rabbits to see how well they look.
I suppose the bigger the tv the more rabbits you can squeeze in and see them clearly.
A NZ Whistling tree frog found in the....wait for it..
Attachment 246816
Behind the cistern of the Ross (west coast) public toilets:o
we released him close to some vegetation. Hopefully he doesn't feel the need to use a shitter of human proportions again:thumbsup:
I've kept these as pets before and the size of their turds in terms of turd/body size ratio would put the sturdiest leavings from a solid NZ hunter to shame...Quote:

The southern brown tree frog (sometimes referred to as the whistling tree frog) is a small brown frog, being the smallest of the three Australian frog species which have become naturalised in Aotearoa/New Zealand. Originally hailing from South-eastern Australia, and Tasmania, it was deliberately introduced to Greymouth in 1875 by Mr W. Perkins,

Be interesting to know what part of the country has the most road side deer on it.
Some rural folks must see heaps of them out there.
Anyone out there got any road side deer secret hot spots out there willing to share :)
I wouldn't mind betting that Stewart Is has more deer on our small network of roads than many others. Whitetail deer of course. 16 on one drive about.
any of the inland roads between Wanganui and Waitotara valley road fallow everywhere

Having a play around in ChatGPT..... with these photos above.
Has anyone else used ChatGPT for this type of thing..... any tips?
Here is the wording that ChatGPT spat out / supplied....:)
Ring-necked pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) are a common sight in New Zealand, where they were introduced in the mid-19th century for hunting and sport. These birds have adapted well to the environment, thriving in farmland, grasslands, and roadside areas, as shown in your image. Their striking plumage, particularly in males, makes them easy to identify, with vibrant colors like iridescent green, blue, and red, complemented by a white neck ring.
Although they are not native, pheasants have become an integral part of New Zealand’s rural landscapes, often spotted feeding on seeds, grains, and insects. However, they are primarily appreciated by hunters and bird watchers alike.
Some springtime summertime deer photos taken on the side of the road recently..... a common occurrence?
Attachment 267344
Obviously, a couple of red deer stags enjoying springtime growth.
