I must apologize for the fuzziness of this picture but I could not get a clear one through the window. This young buck and an older one came to pay us a visit to taste some of the leaves that were close by. White tailed deer are quite plentiful here but this summer was hotter, the mosquitoes and black flies were fewer and food was plentiful which meant that these shy animals stayed out of sight. We knew they were around as there were frequent tracks left near the salt lick that we have for them. They just managed to come in when there was no body to notice them. In the past week they are starting to move around more and have been spotted several times looking for choice morsels to eat. I just hope they are smart enough to stay here when it is hunting season where they will be safe.
