Are these recent pics, hope you can capture the heard again

Yep, the date on the photos are April 29, 2010. I have since moved the camera, but I have sat on the top of the ridge (300 yrds) and watched 20-25 deer tear up my clover plot. I have yet to see the "black deer" in the clover, but I have spent minimal time in there, for good reasons. If I catch it again I will let you know. I was going to post the bobcat, small black bear, a seriously feral dog, and several other interesting photos, but the black deer has my curiosity.

Honestly it looks like a deer standing in the shade, no sunlight hitting it for the camera to get the color right like the deer in the sun.

Camera needs its subjects to be lit to take good pic. So I think it is the lack of light falling on this deer which makes it look black.

Thats what I was thinking.
