Deer on Christmas Day

by

We had to go to my husband’s place of work today so he could fill out his time card since we are going out of town for a few days. Needless to say, there wasn’t any stores open, so it was a quick trip.

On the way home we saw 4 deer. Three were together on the side of the road and then a fourth young deer was about two hundred yards away. He was also beside of the road. They were so beautiful and I really wanted to stop to take a picture but figured they would have darted off when we stopped.

Since the start of deer season, I really haven’t seen that many in the area. We usually see them in the yard or on the land but this year there just hasn’t been that many. It was so nice to see some especially on Christmas day.
