    I was awakened this morning, to the sounds of munching. I thought that I was dreaming, but rolled over and looked out the windows at the head of my bed. I blinked several times to clear my eyes, and sure enough, there was this little doe, feasting on some lush something or other, on the hillside just outside the open window. I slid out of bed and grabbed the camera from the shelf next to the computer. I moved back to the window, and took 16 shots of the little darling, as she moved about. Here are a few of them. Enjoy

    Tom, those are beautiful shots.What a pleasant sight to wake up to. She even posed for you. I am envious that it is cool enough for you to sleep with your windows open! It is SO hot here in Texas. Thanks for sharing. ;)
