This is the neighboring farm to the land our horses are on. This goes on every year! It is controlled and really it is either this, or chemicals.... I guess. For us with allergies it is not the best thing.

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.
