Sunrise on Lake Guntersville, AL, a white-tailed doe emerges from southern long-leaf pines.

A white-tailed doe emerged from southern long-leaf pines at sunrise on Lake Guntersville. While taking in Eagle Awareness Week, I saw this deer approaching me. With my camera in hand, I took the shot and landed a beautiful photo. She was quite inquisitive and seemed to pose for me.
