Oh Deer

Sorry no pictures because my phone was in the house. When I went to retrieve Hissy's ( semi-feral kitty) empty food dish from her shed, there were two full grown does standing very still watching me. They were only a couple of feet away from me in the field. I was afraid they'd bolt and run toward the road, but they just stood there.

On the way back out, with the cat following me, they were still there. Apparently they must have realized I meant them no harm, and they started eating from the field. The cat ignored them as she was more interested in getting her after dinner snacks. She likes to eat them el fresco on a bench under the a tree.
