fawn
in the back yard
Ever since we moved here, Dan has talked about this family of deer that wander around the neighborhood.
I was becoming suspect after one too many "They're outside RIGHT NOW!" messages delivered while I was in the bathroom (only to find them gone when I got out - and no, I didn't take that long).
Well I finally caught the little ones foraging in the back and they're wobbly and twitchy and terribly cute.

i have heard they go from terribly cute to downright terrible after they chew off all the flowers in your garden.
i love the "they're outside RIGHT NOW". makes it sound like he is spying some sort of religous nut stalking you or leaving pamphlets on your doorstep :)

@chuck That's what I was going to say...you plan on gardening, and the deer will plan on de-gardening. It's like a very fun game. Only it's not.

That's gorgeous - I'd feel so blessed to have one in my garden :-) We get the occasional fox running around, and hedgehogs and lots of birds in the garden but sadly no deer. My partner used to call me 'Dr Dolittle' because wherever I was, animals would just flock to me! LOL they must know I'm so soft I'll make a home for them all.
Well done on the photo - it's really sweet.
