Incredible Moment A Stag Sneaks Up Behind A Clueless Wildlife Photographer

Breath-taking image any wildlife photographer would be delighted to capture. Wildlife photographers spend hours camped outside waiting for animals to get close enough to them for the perfect shot. Imagine how it must feel to be this one who missed the perfect shot of a stag that snuck right up behind him.

'We spotted a man with a camera mounted on a tripod intently focused on some deer activity in the ferns in front of him unaware of the large animal behind him. 'Given the angle I was positioned, it looked like the stag was nuzzled up to pick a pocket from his jeans so I took a photo as it looked comical. 'But it was quite bizarre that a wild animal would be so close without being noticed. 'A few seconds later the deer backed off and with those large beautiful shiny eyes seemed to look at the photographer and say 'your model is right behind you! Am I not good enough for you?' 'The photographer never did realise the opportunity he missed and the red deer and I collectively gave up and wandered off in different directions.'
