Young deer, tried stopping by my lilies for a snack! I took this picture through the window but accidentally left the flash on from the last pic taken… This is the moment the deer noticed me - it didn’t bolt until I started opening the door! (and it didn’t seem to get any of the lilies… this time)

    Have you thought about putting up a feeder (if local regulations allow it)? They’re beautiful creatures, had family in West Virginia, way up in the boonies, the fawns are extremely cute.

        Forgot about the ticks hahaha, got them once or twice as a kid then decided to just preemptively use all the products when we would visit.

        They had a huge plot of land though so I doubt they were worried about adding more ticks.

          Yeah, and sadly with kids in the neighborhood, I’d hate to be responsible for a Lyme disease outbreak or something like that 😅
