An original line drawing of a beautiful Red Deer stag quenching its thirst; it measures just a few centimetres ‘square’——now framed.
Originally, bought from an online bookseller for ‘pennies’ – it was discovered between the pages of the Holy Book – as a bookmark.
To me – the Nun’s drawing with words – simply sums up everything I know and feel about the ‘magic’ of discovering one of these white-tipped beauties at my feet…
‘Light in the Darkness’…
The glowing white tips of a six-point antler in situ 4th April 2019 – and above a five pointer – 3rd April 2019.
Ever since finding my first Shed – a HUGE eight-pointer in 2016 – I’ve been addicted to ‘Shed Hunting’ – the joyful, early Springtime pursuit of searching for naturally shed Red Deer antlers.
My first shed in situ.
Lifting a Shed from the earth and holding it on high leads me to think that somehow it has been placed not randomly cast at all——because this April, I have been doubly blessed with a ‘pair’ of freshly shed Red Deer antlers – a five-pointer and a huge sixer——WOW!
Five-pointer! ‘Found’ – Wednesday, 3rd April 2019.
Six-pointer! ‘Found’ – Thursday, 4th April 2019.
Shed Harvest to date – two in 2016, one in 2017 and two again in 2019 – all from this small group of magnificent, beneficent stags…
