This one month old Roe deer has grown very fast. I caught a glimpse of him just two weeks ago and he could barely be seen in the grass. I hope to be seeing more of him in the coming years. July 1st was certainly the hottest day of his short life, reaching a stifling 34.1°C at this location on the Sussex/Surrey border. Temperatures like this are normal to many people around the world, but in England, it’s newsworthy. The air felt like the inside of a car parked in the sun for a couple of hours. Only baby deer and wildlife photographers have the energy to remain active in these weather conditions.
