Backyard Deer

The highlight of the month in June for me was the visits of a whitetail deer in my backyard. This doe would drop by in the morning or evening to check out the garden and bird feeder. She would then cross the street and disappear into a wooded area. I live in a subdivision and the neighbours had indicated that this doe was seen with a fawn.One day at noon, she was standing in the middle of our driveway as we drove in and of coarse we didn't have the camera with us. This is the second year she has returned to that section of woods for a birth site. I spend a lot of time in the woods a 1/2hr from home, watching, studying, hunting deer, so it's kind of funny to have one walking through your backyard. I'm looking forward to her return next year and will be ready with carrots and camera.
