Dave Chojna photographed this Muntjac Deer fawn from his garden hide in Buckinghamshire with a Canon SLR.  It's mother was close by and Dave believes this fawn is about 3 months old.  Muntjac deer were originally introduced to the UK in Bedfordshire, in the 1800's and have since spread through much of England and Wales.
