little visitors


I've had the cutest little visitors in 
my yard for the last few weeks!


a set of twins!
Their mother is never far away.
We live on two acres and are used to seeing adult deer....
but these babies are precious!
When they got a little too close to the hydrangeas,
I walked outside to shoo them away.


Yesterday, in the late afternoon,
we watched them running & playing 
in our backyard.

They wandered too far & the mother was worried.
She stood looking in all directions for her two little ones.
Finally, they bounced back into view.
She then led them back into the trees.

Have a great weekend!

  1. It just makes you feel good to see them. When I was a child I had two little ceramic statues of fawns and they were posed just like the two in your first photo. I still have them somewhere. Thanks for the memories!

  5. Delightful! So nice to see someone who respects our wildlife. I found that deer are careful diners...they love some of our plants and hate others, but I don't remember which is which. I've got a great giveaway going, please stop in for a little visit. xx's
