Wildlife In Our Back Yard

This morning one of my children called to me in great excitement. "DEER!! There's a deer in the back!" I ran upstairs to get a look and sure enough on the back lawn there was a young buck making his way up the hill to the woods beyond!!

Then when hubby came home from work he said the same thing and it was the same buck crossing the back yard!

In our old house we rarely saw the deer. I think because the deer perhaps knew that there was hunting out our way and here in this area it is preserved land and the deer are kept safe. I hear you see them here all the time!!

Oh, speaking of all the time. I forgot! The first time we went to our land our boys saw a fawn out the back. They were within 20 feet of it and they just stood there looking at it and it never moved away!!

I will be thrilled if we feel the country in our new town home!
