Camera Critters #29

Camera Critters by Misty Dawn, go here to see who's participating.

I was driving home to lunch and I noticed movement in the yard. This is a busier road then where I get shots near the lakes but I pulled or and put on my emergency flasher. It is an emergency when you need to take some pictures, right!!! What I saw was a mother and two fawns. What a wonderful photo opportunity. This was a about three weeks back so the trees were still green but the Oak Tree must have been dropping some acorns.
The fawns were just beautiful.
The mother was also in real good shape. She was already in her winter coat and was real healthy.
The fawns were through the spot phase and were also looking healthy.

They were feeding and came together at one time.

Now I what to tell a story of a trip to the Texas roadhouse with the grandchildren. This took place near where I work and about 4 miles from where we are now with the deer.

I spotted a mother with two fawns on that day. I was able to pull over and place the grand kids right adjacent to the deer. My grand daughter Princess said one of them was a buck. I looked and sure enough the one spunky fawn was a button buck. I had left my camera at home. I carry it along 90% of the time but not this one. The buck put on quite a show and crossed the road directly in front of me. I was so mad , I thought, you dummy "Where's you camera?".

I went home and was looking at my photos from the week before and walla, look at the little button buck. No, there was no photo editing. That is way beyond me. What you see on this site is what you get. I do hope you didn't mind another deer post. I have been really lucky with deer this year.

I would like to share with you an interview I did with David McMohon who is an Australian based writer. I really enjoy David's site and participated in his Sunday Roast. If you click on the link you can read the post. This is another time I am happy I have friends around the world because of the Internet.
