For those of you unaware, molting - or as many people see it as the shedding of hair - is the process that sees a deer replacing its hair coat. It happens twice a year, once around the springtime and then before fall kicks in.

The mere visual of the birds scouring the deer's body to acquire as much fur as possible, is the one to behold. What's even more incredible is the deer's gentle demeanor. After all, it's not easy to resist a free trim, isn't that right?

These marvelous scenes were caught on camera in London on April 8, 2022.
