Oh deer, deer, deer, deer

 A doe and three fawns visited our yard aka snack bar yesterday. 

I noticed movement out the living room window. 


The doe was turning a real dark color.


The fawns were in three different stages...some spots, fading spots and almost no spots.   I wonder if the doe had triplets?  One fawn seemed larger than the others...perhaps it was an adoption.  They love the acorns.



Checking out the bird bath.  

They wandered in the yard about twenty minutes and then disappeared off into the woods.

  3. Your visitors are beautiful creatures. We haven't seen our doe or her twins in the last week or so. But our turkeys are still hanging around.

  8. What a treat to see the deer. I'm sure they aren't appreciated when they are eating up the gardens but good of them to clean up the acorns.

  9. It's good that you opted not to plant flowers so now you can just enjoy your deer visitors

  12. I guess you need to get a livestock tank or and automatic waterer. It is a good thing to see them and I know its a bad thing of what they eat. It is interesting to watch the development. A fawn maybe though it would be nice to join the twins.

  18. We will start seeing the deer late this fall and mid winter. They usually don't come into our yard.
    Now I can see why it is so hard to have any garden at all!

  19. We see deer occasionally, but usually in the back field, which is almost too far away to get photos. I love the white dove in the window- beautiful!

  20. I wonder if she had 3 or if she adopted one. We had 3 fawns with no mom last summer. Even when they were young there wasn't a mom around. THey hung together all summer, then in early fall one got hit by a car (we guess) and after a little bit we didn't see the other two either. We were all sad. We had named them the three amigos.

  21. The deer occasional visit our community garden plot aka salad bar from time to time. I hope they enjoyed our fall planting of green beans because we never had a chance to. Nevertheless, I enjoyed your photos and also your blue themed window.
