This large male strolled into an area where a younger male had been resting just a few moments earlier. After sniffing around for a few moments he charged after the younger male, driving him away from the area.

About The Photographer

I am a retired graphic arts/digital media instructor. I spent 36 years teaching grades 9-12 in a small school district in Pennsylvania. I have just recently started to travel and enjoy photographing wildlife.
