Once again, this summer we have some wildlife friends who are allowing us to watch them grow and live. I mentioned the doe that had visited and munched on my flowers a bit earlier in the summer. Well, evidently the doe has a couple of babies. They have spent so much time in the yard lately that they don't even seem phased by our coming and going at times.
There is also another doe with a baby who is a bit older and larger than these twins. They graze the yard, nap in the yard, and just generally hang out around our house.
The babies are cute and the mamas are beautiful. It also gives us a bit of a worry that they might get down onto the highway and get hit by a vehicle.
I watched them for a few minutes one afternoon and I thought one of the babies was going to go into Mike's barn!
They will look up at us and cautiously watch us to see if we are going to come toward them. When we stand still, they just go back to munching on the grass and ignore us.
