We've been seeing 3 deer almost every evening in our pasture. I just know they are waiting for the garden to grow a little more.
Look at the velvet! That will be rubbed off the antlers in the fall and the antlers will come off later in the winter months. New antlers are grown in the spring.
These shots were taken in the late evening, so I enhanced the color a bit in order to see the deer better. These shots were taken out the window. Do you have deer in your neighborhood?
Until next time...
Wow, what beautiful velvet!! They are scouting! ;) No deer in our neighborhood... almost downtown. blessings ~ tanna
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful and he is in velvet. I used to be able to go out and talk to the deer that came on our property.... then we moved.
ReplyDeleteLovely out-your-window pictures.
ReplyDeleteDo I have a deer in my neighborhood? Doubt it. And hope not, actually. Every time I see a pic of a deer, I think of TICKS. Which I fear, with a passion.

call the perfect middle of a splendid summer afternoon."

i am sooooo jealous, i am completely obsessed with deer. we see them on our bike path, about 10 minutes from home.
ReplyDeletenever in the yard, i would litterally die, for sure!!
Oh, yes. We have a family: mom and 2 "teenagers" The mom is crippled, and it pains me to see her limping. But she's been that way for several years.
ReplyDeleteThose antlers are amazing! I would love to see that out in my yard, but no. I do see deer running across the road sometimes. You wouldn't think to see deer in the desert but they are there.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful animals to see from our window! I don't see any where I live now. When I was growing up I lived in the country and I saw deer all the time. They're so pretty and graceful!
ReplyDeleteLovely, lovely pictures - I'll be back!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots Cheryl! Love the velvet antlers. Yep we have us some deer. We have a very young doe, looks young to us, that has twins. She has been having a time keeping them together. I had never seen a deer stamp its front legs and call to a baby before last week. Maybe she was giving us what for!
ReplyDeleteNo rain this morning! Waaaaaaah.
ReplyDeleteno! that is one animal i've never seen here on run*a*round. i've seen them a few miles down the dirt road, though.
ReplyDeleteno deer here. about an hours drive to find them, and then it might be iffy. these are beautiful and i would love to see them out my window.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures of the deer out your window. No deer here in town but I know there are plenty in the country.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures, Cheryl. Those are handsome deer for sure. Wonder if there are some babies in the woods????
ReplyDeleteYES---we have deer. I love them too --until they munch on our roses!!!!! ha
Hugs,
Betsy
Apparently, yes. And we built them a big buffet. They sure are beautiful, though.
ReplyDeleteHi Cheryl!
ReplyDeleteWhat beauties - I'll bet they would love to have a feast in your garden! How lucky you are to be able to see these gorgeous deer right outside your window!
Hugs,
Barb
Beautiful photos! But thankfully we don't have any deer in our neighborhood. Nearby, yes, but they haven't bothered us yet...eating our flowers is what I mean! Enjoy your day.
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful creatures. And they do look like velvet. We do not have deer in our yard - but in some forests that are close by. sandie
ReplyDeleteWhat a glorious sight to behold.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos....while photographing the "Church in the Wildwood", a deer stepped out in the tall prairie grass. I got so excited that the photo was out of focus....but, I saved it anyway!
ReplyDeleteHow fun to have the deer so close to you !!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures!!
Thanks for sharing.
Hope you have a great weekend!!
Smiles :)

Great shots. I can see the felt on his antlers. We haven't seen many lately. We used to see up to 20 at a time.
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love seeing the felt on those antlers? I am for sure thinking that they can smell that garden coming on!!! I enjoyed seeing these pictures. Have a great day
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of this buck! We have lots of deer in our area and the whole province too. I had 2 run across the highway in front of me the other evening. They roam around our rural community all the time. As for you roof? I might go with a grey/black. Such a hard choice with red brick. Some brick house here have the same colour red for their shingles too. A difficult choice. All the best.

The first thing I noticed was the velvet...and we live in a small town...go a block and there is the railroad and then a cornfield. I have seen deer down there, and several years ago, one got in a neighbor's fence and got scared and killed itself trying to get out. I do not know why it didn't jump it....
