Our furry and feathered friends

Our first fawn this year

Who can resist Bambi? Not us, for sure. We recently had our first fawn of the spring season nibbling on the bed of ivy in our back yard. (The deer make a regular run of the bed, taking only the newest, most tender leaves. This little guy's (or gal's) mother was demonstrating the neighborhood treats.)

We still get ducks (is Pauline going to lay any eggs this year?), turkeys, deer (when do the bucks rub the velvet off their antlers?), birds, and squirrels (who will win the sunflower seed wars: the squirrels or our upstairs neighbors?). They're fun to watch when we take work breaks during the day.
