This cute little doe walks through our yard almost every morning, although I haven't seen her for a few days. I followed her down to our neighbor's back yard last week to take a picture. This is her spying me from under one of Mrs. Shaw's fruit trees. Now I know why she hangs around down there for so long :0) So far she has stayed away from our garden.

Doe A Deer

Our cat, Bullet, alerted me to this doe that was making it's way through our back yard early this morning. By the time I could get my camera, she had moved over to our neighbor's yard. I hope she doesn't find our garden.

I looked out our back door this morning and found a deer in our backyard. I grabbed my camera with zoom lens and quietly made my way out to try and get a picture. He looked up at me and froze and I snapped this picture. I love deer, but really hope they don't discover our garden. Soon after I  got this picture, he headed off toward the hedge row and into the field.
 

I had another nice surprise this morning. After getting some pictures of the deer, I spotted our Tree Swallows who had come back for a visit. They left the bird house over two weeks ago. They sat on the garden arbor long enough for me to get several shots of them. All in all a great morning for photography :0)

It was a gorgeous day for a road trip yesterday. It was our first one
since Terry had his foot surgery almost three weeks ago. We ended
up in Watertown and Norene, small towns in rural Wilson County.
As we were driving along one of the country roads, I spotted these
deer in someone's back yard. Terry backed the truck up and stopped
and I quickly started snapping pictures. As soon as they saw us they
started to scatter. At least I got a few good shots of them.

Oh Deer!

We stopped in the middle of the road to get this shot of a deer.
I took this picture out the window of the Jeep on our way back
from the lake.
