Intimacy
oil on canvas mounted on panel, 24 x 18

 
  I spend a lot of time in the National Bison Range here in northwestern Montana, and on one of my recent trips I was delighted and charmed to watch this mama whitetail and her yearling daughter pause in their feeding for a quiet and evidently pleasurable bout of mutual grooming. One of the benefits of time in the field - wonderful moments like this.
