Worth the Wait

I woke up well before sunrise to trek out to my tiny photography blind in a small forest clearing. It was only five degrees out this particular morning in early winter, which was slightly cold for Nebraska (though not nearly as cold as it can get.) After five hours of sitting still and not seeing much more than squirrels, I was about to pack up for the day. Just as I took one last look, a white-tailed buck walked around a nearby ridge. Staying for only a moment, he glanced back at me as if to say “you’re welcome.”

This photograph won people's choice in the January 2015 Wild View photography contest via the Wildlife Conservation Society. You can view the original post here.
