We love how our home is situated. We have 1/2 acre of yard, and then beyond our fence, our neighors have a stretch of 2 acres that are nicely wooded. Because of the openness of it (ours is the only fence), we get to see much wildlife. A few weeks ago, we had these two deer out back. (You can see the one, and the second is faintly beyond it.) I joke with my parents because they get jealous that we see deer so often. Dan claims that they are more a pest here because there are so many. During hunting season you can shoot up to 5 deer on one ticket. And you have to watch out for them year-round when driving.
In fact, there's a family of 5 that keep running in front of my car when I'm on my way to teach seminary at 6 in the morning. Gratefully, I've been alert and haven't run any down. I believe I caught the same deer family in our backyard. I think they joined ranks with others because now there are 8.
They are so beautiful! When they ran off, I noticed that the last deer was limping pretty badly. I guess someone hit it afterall. I hope they can survive.
