During the winter months, the California Mule Deer do not hibernate as many other animals do.  These deer forage for foods under the fresh covered snow.   The bucks were very aware of my presence as I slowly approached them, but they are not generally afraid of humans in their space (in Yosemite Valley).  If one moves slowly and quietly, they may just ignore our presence as these bucks did.  The falling snow made for a very magical image .   
 

A photo tip; by using flash fill , I was able to give the snow flakes a bit more sparkle and a catch–light in the buck's eyes.

  This photo was selected by the National Wildlife Association as one of their Christmas Cards.

​What Our Clients Are Saying

"We had a great time on  a two day tour in Yosemite with Ira!  We saw all of the highlights, created some memorable photographs and had a terrific time!  Our 11 year old son was charmed and entertained with scientific challenges and games.  Traveling with a local was the way to go and Ira made our experience memorable, fun and exciting."
