Mule Deer buck falling asleep on the job

It kind of looks like it, eh? In truth I just happened to click as he was blinking. The bucks are a bit rambunctious now with the rut going on although I haven’t yet gotten any good snaps of the battles.

Found across western North America, Mule Deer are named for their oversized ears. Image taken at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge near Denver, Colorado.
