Animal pictures of the week: 16 March 2012

[Jazzy]

A wildlife photographer misses his subject. The man was trying to spot deer in a park outside Copenhagen in Denmark, but missed a huge stag as it walked past him. He had his long lens pointing in the wrong direction. Photographer Hans Kruse, who captured the scene, said: The other photographer had been staring at the woods for a while while when this rather large deer appeared out of nowhere and tiptoed past him. I was laughing so much it was quite hard to take the picture.

Love pictures like this of animals. The deer in the first one made me chuckle as that's a pretty big deer for the photographer to miss.

Must be the wrong lens

I just can't believe he didn't hear the deer approaching.
