Deer, Oh Deer

A wounded deer leaps the highest. ~~Emily Dickinson 

Last week, a deer came to eat apples under the neighbours wild apple tree just across from our house. It continued to eat for quite a time while I snapped some photos.

With curiousity, it stretched it's neck out to get a good look at me. I supposed it wondered what I was doing.

This is another reason why  like living way out here in Dalhousie.

Oh Deer!

“I ask people why they have deer heads on their walls. They always say because it's such a beautiful animal. There you go. I think my mother is attractive, but I have photographs of her.” ----Ellen DeGeneres

I shot these deer (with my camera) outside Bridgewater one night on our way back home to Dalhousie. There were eleven deer altogether nibbling away on the new spring grass.
