(INTO THE WOODS AND BEYOND!)
LATE IN THE AFTERNOON, SOMETIMES WHEN IT’S ALMOST DUSK, THE DEER START TO MAGICALLY APPEAR FROM THE WOODS.
IN THE TOP IMAGE, THEY’VE HEARD A CAR PULL INTO THE DRIVEWAY…MOST OF THE TIME THEY MAKE SURE THAT THERE’S NO THREAT AND THEY GO ON ABOUT THEIR BUSINESS.
THIS IMAGE IS FROM MY ARCHIVES…IT WAS TAKEN SEVERAL YEARS AGO. MAMA, THE THREE LEGGED DEER, LEFT THESE LITTLE ONES FOR SIX HOURS ONE AFTERNOON…IT’S PART OF THE PROCESS AS THE BABIES GROW BIGGER AND STRONGER AND FASTER… THEY ALWAYS COME BACK FOR THE BABIES.
I STAYED GLUED TO THE WINDOW FOR ALMOST THAT ENTIRE TIME AND SHOT, I DON’T KNOW HOW MANY IMAGES.
IT WAS A WONDERFUL DAY…VERY SPECIAL.
WELL ALRIGHT….THESE ARE NOT IMAGES OF AN ELF…BUT THE YOUNG FAWN IS SO TINY THAT IT SEEMED ELF-LIKE TO ME.
I THINK THIS IS THE YOUNGEST FAWN I’VE EVER SEEN VISITING THE BACKYARD…SUCH A TREAT!
This looks like such a serene image doesn’t it? Taken, oh…probably a week and a half ago…two weeks? Now there’s only a patch of snow left…far down in the woods, it’s so good to see the actual ground again and…..AAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!!
IT’S SNOWING! RIGHT THIS MINUTE, IT’S SNOWING! AND THE FLAKES JUST GOT BIGGER AND FLUFFIER AND FATTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WILL THIS NEVER END???
Did I tell you that I think that I’m allergic to snow??????????? I have had “cold” issues for over a month now….I just know that I’m allergic to snow…
I just started sneezing like crazy, I’m pretty sure that just LOOKING at the snow made me start to sneeze…
I had to grab a paper towel to sneeze into…unfortunately a piece of toast had just been resting there…I just sneezed bread crumbs off of the paper towel and all over myself and…
OH MY LORD IT’S SNOWING LIKE CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It doesn’t have running water, but it is free to stay there…I’m not sure how many deer we can cram in there, but I’m thinking about fifty, (just kidding). Seeing that we’re supposed to get 150 inches of snow tonight and 500 inches tomorrow, (once again, just kidding). I thought that I’d open up the shed for any animals looking to get off the road and ride out the storm in comfort. If they want to watch TV or forgot their toothbrush, there WILL be a charge for that……OH! And any pizza delivery is an extra $1.
Stay safe everybody!!
