The Herd Bull

As sunset approached Monday, the heavy cloud cover that had been present all day began to break. A nice bull and a single cow were in the woods along this woodland opening. Hoping for the bull to move into the beautiful light of the setting sun I was to be disappointed when he bed down and continued to bugle from his bed.

Shortly after the sun dropped behind the distant ridge the cow moved into the opening. The colors of autumn enhanced by the beautiful light remaining painted a beautiful backdrop to photograph the cow against. The only thing missing was a majestic bull.





As the evening light was fading fast, a dominate herd bull hove into view. With mud smeared flanks and antlers he staked his claim to the winsome cow with an ear splitting spine tingling bugle.
