A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Cervus elaphus
You can follow this deer running through the dead willow trees.
The Oostvaardersplassen, where I shot this picture is a beautiful nature reserve with a broad selection of wildlife. The willow woods are dying and in between you see te red deer, wild cows and Konik horses running. When a animal died they let the corpses to decompose in a natural way. By doing so the Burying beetle, a beetle that was extinct in Holland, came back in our nature.

I'm sorry Sophie, but it is not the forest that is running even though it looks like that ;)
