Nosy Neighbors

Look who's been hanging out in our back yard every night! 
 

A mama and her baby.  I wish I got a pick a few months ago when the baby was teeny.  Alas, I was busy with my own teeny baby.
 
 The mama isn't scared of us AT ALL.  In fact, I'm way more afraid of her than she is of me.  I could probably walk right up to her and touch her if I wanted to, but when I get as close as this, I get visions of being trampled to death by a mad mama deer and I don't get any closer.

I think they are beautiful and I want to make them my pets, but Sylvain?  He hates them because they ate everything in our garden.  I say, if a neighbor came to our door and wanted all of our green beans and lettuce, we would happily share, so I don't know what the big deal is!

Oh I love them!! They're so pretty and peaceful.

Sylvain should wrap the garden in chicken wire if he wants to keep them out (that's what my aunt susie does at her house where she otherwise loves the deer)
