Water Buck

By Hermanus
Water Buck are also called Kring gat in Afrikaans, which translated means circled butt. I wonder why Smile
V1 - Mr Water Buck
V2 - Mrs Water Buck
Thank you Carol [ Caziwinkles] and Richard [ [DicksPicks] for your treasured UA's on my fat family - and to everyone who voted and commented too Smile I was amazed how many guys loves to live dangerously by mentioning their mother's in law's likeness to the lead image GrinGrinGrin

I have often wondered why deer almost always turn their backs when we try to photograph them. In this case, I think they are showing off their colorsSmile
