Backyard visiting deer at lunch

This trio has been here fairly often recently. The little ones have sure grown since their last visit.

Just took these photos at 2:10PM. It looks like they are resting in the shade of the trees after enjoying their lunch at my neighbors' flower gardens. :lol: Mama Doe was two houses south of my ground-level patio, and her two Fawns were about 3 houses north of me. Ruh-roh. Mama's ears sure popped up when she saw me taking the pics. Too far from the kids :!:

Fun to see them. They sure are a beautiful sight.

I've had deer visiting my yard having lunch at night on my tomato plants and bean plants. I may not get much of a harvest in my raised bed and large pot gardens this year. They are not so welcome at my place.

I'm glad you like them at yours though. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder for sure, lol.

Used to be plenty of deer in my area, walked out of my shop and about got run over by 4 cutting around the corner at a run once, could have touched two except I was too startled. Have seen 6-7 grazing in the lot next door. Then the blue tongue disease came through 3 years ago and have not see any sign until I found a print in my yard last Sunday. Maybe they are making comeback.
