Mule Deer Doe. Bow hunting is in full swing now, but this doe was just resting. Not as many hunters out as we thought there would be, so it was good for me for photographs!
The mule deer have their own personalities. This is a given to us who watch them, photograph them.
Here are some shots I got of the Mule Deer hiding behind the juniper trees and brush or peeking out of where they can to watch me watching them!
One doe is so afraid she is still eating HAHA!
The bucks are now loosing their antlers as seen in another one of my posts.
I do worry for the young, it is winter time. Not a good time for young to be born or for the older young who are not experienced with getting away from hungry predators. But the way the world works when the older, experienced bucks are the ones the hunters want, leaving their duties to the younger inexperienced bucks.
I made my way outside as the sun was shining to sit in my chair.
With camera in hand my sons cat jumped the dogs fence and then on me to lay down in my lap.
