I encountered these two on the way to the car the other day. I think they were dejected upon discovering all of our apples are gone. “Sorry, but then you did have a delicious fall crop.”
Deer in the morning light, attracted by back yard compost.
There are days when I am not happy to see a deer in my backyard … but this isn’t one of them. This scene reminded me that Spring is on the way! Only then, when the deer begin nibbling on our flowers and apples, will I be more inclined to “walk my guest to the […]
As long as flowers are not in bloom, guests like this beauty are welcome in our yard. This one was a bit nervous, moving on through the shrubs as soon as I arrived with camera.
