I love living in a small town. Our local paper —online daily, printed version once a week — often shows pictures of deer, birds, and other creatures taken by the readers.
These two of a yearling pruning the bushes outside of a house especially warmed my heart.

Jim was in the phone book, so I called to ask permission to share the photos. He not only sent me copies of the originals, he added two more pictures, of a young buck that was one of the fawns from last year. Jim calls him “Fuzzy Nubbins” because he’s starting to sprout antlers.

Omg…omg!!! Indeed…tell him thanks from me too. Terrific photos of such beautiful creatures of the woodlands. Perfectly composed.
Yes. 🙂
Wonderful photos. How generous of him to share them.
Yes. 🙂
Jim is very generous. He got great photos. You DO live in a very small town!
A small, friendly town. 🙂
Good photos by a talented photographer. Thanks for sharing, both of you.
I’m impressed by the photography too. And the generosity.
I think deer may be my favorite of all the woodland creatures. Love Fuzzy Nubbins!
🙂 It’s a clever name.
Thanks Jean and of course Jim – I don’t have that type of roaming animal helping me with pruning, but wish I did…
He says it saves him a lot of work.
Thank you Jim for letting J share your beautiful deer with us. the photos are so sharp and clear, I feel as if i could rub their furs.Jim has excellent photography skills for sure and I have never seen a deer except in a zoo. i am having trouble getting my name and email to save, i have to enter it every time i comment, it saves on other wordpress, and I am logged in on wordpress so can’t figure it out.
I’m so sorry WP is doing that to you. I wish I knew how to fix it. 🙁
So sweet.
🙂
