The cereal fields are harvested and bare. The grassy field corners have been trimmed and the group of roe have largely retreated to the woods. Or at least that is what I expected. In fact the group continues to graze, at certain times, right out in the open.

Yesterday evening the buck, a doe and two fauns were grazing on green areas of the wheat stubble. In fact it was on the field that was crossed by the route of a roman road. They were spread out on either side of what must have been the verge of the road itself. They seem relatively unconcerned about our two whippets that were thankfully unaware whilst gorging on blackberries on the railway line path.
