The Deer

Tom and I were sitting at the kitchen table talking today and I said, "Do you think the deer come out on days like this when it is sunny and bright?"

Most of the pictures we have of the deer that visit our back yard are on the days that are gray and overcast.

Then, all of a sudden, I saw the reflection of a little white tail in the window and I said, "Oh, there is a deer!" Sure enough, there was one deer, then two deer, then three deer, and four deer, and five deer, and six deer, and seven deer and then finally EIGHT deer!!

It was so beautiful and exciting. Below are several pictures of the deer and then two videos. I so hope you enjoy seeing the deer!

Very nice indeed!

Makes me wish I was sitting at your kitchen table watching the deer with you. It must be son nice to live close to a major city and still have that part of the country right in your backyard.

With you living in a community of 70k and downtown Minneapolis only minutes away, your back yard and the marsh might be one of the few safe places for the deer. Makes you wonder where they are when they're not in your back yard.
