Our neighborhood has 10 houses. It's fairly wooded around her, which means we have some deer. One day our neighbor Marge (wife of "Gene the Norwegian") called excited to say, "Look out your window! The deer are headed to your yard!" And so it has continued all winter. Every morning the deer walk up the hill by our house, cross the road to Marge & Gene's house and snack out of their bird feeder. Then they head through the woods to Kurt & Julie's house (who may or may not be feeding the deer apples and grain - don't tell the DNR).
This week, several deer "hung out" in our backyard all afternoon, basking in the sunshine for 3-4 hours. They are quite tame and allowed me to step out on the deck and photograph them.

5 p.m. the group of 3 is heading up the dry creek bed. The lone deer left our yard earlier in the afternoon.
Do you think they'll have babies... wouldn't that be cute!
