This was filmed last February when 3 albino whitetail bucks visited our property a few times (after they had shed their antlers). The bucks are the ones with the brown on their heads - the brown is staining from tree bark as they rub their antlers on trees. They will be snow white again when they shed their winter coats. They are not regulars in our neck of the woods so we didn't have the opportunity to see them with their antlers. We sure would have loved to. We did get a brief glimpse of the old buck with his wide, palmated antlers. It seems that as the albino bucks age their antlers get thicker & thicker. We learned shortly after this filming that the old buck (with the limp) was taken by wolves. They only came around a few days but we sure enjoyed seeing them. The big buck especially, who we called Big Al, was absolutely magnificent. So far we haven't had a glimpse of the two remaining bucks this winter.

  • They are not pie-bald. The brown on the bucks heads is staining from rubbing their antlers on trees. When they lose their winter coat they are pure white again.

  • @vegaboy76 no in boulder junction that means there NOT SHOOTERS

  • this look more pie-bald than albino, this means they are shooters

  • to have been trusted with this image is a great honor

  • it looks like you have a whole herd of whites. my friend you are truely blessed to have seen such a thing. A single deer is rare but a whole herd is unpresidented to my knowledge. You're blessed

  • ud think the albino bucks would blend in better to not get eatin by wolves

  • was the old buck sick or something?

  • you got some unicorns there! or maybe no-nicorns....since they lost the the antlers...yeah it is late and I make no sense...

  • Love it my friend!! Beautifully put together with the music. They are such beautiful creatures, its so wonderful to see them in action.... but your still shots are awesome as well!
