Look Who's Come To Dinner ~

 Look who's come to dinner!

I never like to see them so close to the highway,

but they even seem to have adapted to that, as

they guide their youngsters to learn how to

watch for traffic.  

 We've had SO much snow this spring, but

the deer have managed to find patches of green

with just as quick a thaw.

 This mom and yearling look quite good considering

the length of winter here, the depth of snow in the woods

and the lack of browse available because of it.

 Mama deer will soon chase this year old into

teenage stage, since she looks pregnant.  Once she

settles in to give birth and until her newborns are 

chasing and playing in the field, the Mama will

keep the yearling/teens, away from her young.

No matter how sweetly those eyes look at you,

her first priority once her fawns drop, will be to

take sole care of them.   The yearlings/teens, 

will be totally on their own.  It's called 

' the nature of things.'  

It's all good.

Awwww, spring!   The time of fawns,

bunnies and cubs in our country.

So, who's come to dinner in your yard?
