Oh deer :-)

Two of them, early this morning. First one peeped through the fence behind the pond, then they made their way round to the woods at the side of the house, (hopefully) browsing on the newly-risen briars.

Two young whitetails; look like last year's babies, out on their own now. They are not at all shy: they stare back. And you know they are just waiting for nightfall so that they can eat more tulips. Or nibble the young daylilies.

And that reminds me, I really must move the yew I planted in a big pot. Who would have thought yew was a deer delight...
