Garden Deer.

I get a lot of Mule deer in my garden. The yellow flags mark where I have planted shrubs and tiny trees. Between the gophers and the deer, I'm having a hard time getting this area started. I don't mind because I love to have these beautiful visitors.

I carefully opened the kitchen door and talked to them to get them to lift their heads up.

But then Max walked out through the open door and they must have thought he was a Bob Cat and so they took off. Look how nimble they are at going over the fence.

There's still a lot of snow on the North face of the bluff.

There must have been at least 10 of them altogether. They return every day to browse.
