White-tailed deer

Nearly obscured by saplings and ferns, a young whitetail deer feeds in a small clearing in the forests of Petra, Maine. Petra is a one hundred acre plot of land in the northern part of Maine's northernmost county, Aroostook County. The photograph was taken by a Primos Truth Cam 35 wildlife camera which has been mounted to a tree, and which is activated by a combination of movement and body heat, to reduce the number of empty pictures.
