My local suburban deer are more camera friendly. This is the less blurry snap. I had to work fast before my 9-yr-old couldn’t contain her excitement anymore.
In 2014, I walked most of the way from Wichita, KS to Austin, TX. Somewhere near OKC, I passed a Walmart distribution center around 10 or 11 pm. Huge expanse, manicured lawns, etc. Across the road, in a wooded area, I spotted a full-grown buck and two does in the light of the full moon. I stood frozen for a few moments, until he gave a snort, and all 3 ran off into the trees. What a beautiful sight.
He’s actually saying “Let me out, let me out!”, which is not gonna happen here in coyote-town.
The haze around his head is where I assume the previous resident’s dog scratched at the glass, while the double-glow eyes are from my headlamp (grilling in the yard after dark).
According to Mr. Oscar Wilde, the only way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it… She, as the irish writer and victorian fashion victim, could resist everything but temptation of petting a kitten. I can´t blame her.
