My wife saw Bambi and the kids in the yard so I grabbed my camera and took a few pctures through the screen, went outside and took a couple more before they saw me and headed for the woods.

Yep, starting to see more of them. Bow season starts soon and then the rut, they'll be all over the road. Think of all the people who have to go to a zoo to see them.

Yeah, I love living in the country. We get deer, lots of turkey (or is it turkeys?), osprey, herons, and prehistoric sized mosquitoes (that luckily don't bite otherwise they'd drain your average human). Not to mention clear skies at night (enough to see the Milkyway) and enough lightning bugs on a July evening to make the trees light up like at Christmas.
Oh, and I have to take my own trash to the dump...

There were a couple of does in our back yard a week or two ago. They had two spotted fawns and what looked to be an older juvenile (maybe a yearling or less) with them. The three youngest were chasing each other around the yard and playing like calves sometimes do, kicking up their heels, stopping to munch a little grass then romping around some more.
I've also seen a few bucks around that would make nice additions to my freezer - including coming upon the biggest buck I have ever seen when I went out in the woods to do a little plinking a few weeks back. Got within less than 25 yards of it before it saw me, started bellowing/trumpeting or whatever you want to call it and ran away, all the time leaving me what would have been a perfect, broadside angle for a one-shot-kill, right behind the front shoulder and through the vitals, had it been deer season and had I had one of my long guns instead of a .22 revolver. You just wait, though, come the start of deer season every one of them will magically disappear into the firmament until deer season is over, when they will be back to taunt me.
It always seems to go that way for me. See, for the record, I have eaten them (one of my favorite meats, period) and I have cleaned and butchered deer that other folks have killed but have never taken one, myself. Hopefully, though, this will be my year! I do have to admit, though, that I'd swap the chance at taking a deer for taking a feral hog that is not to old to make good pork chops (because the hog would probably yield more meat and I can just imagine something like that on the smoker!)
