Deer beds!

I went to the forest, wearing my snowshoes, \ to fetch the memory cards. I found deer beds. 



They wander over the frozen wetland, looking for weeds and saplings to fill their bellies.

Another bed, tucked in beside the tree.

The hole in the tree intrigued me. Nothing was in there.

I peeked out back, and spotted two deer in deer beds under the white pine tree. By the time I grabbed my camera, Momma was headed for the deer feeders. The fawn just sat and waited. 

And waited,
And still waited.
The adults were anxious. They need more fuel than the little one.
Dawn had come, the fawn roared over.

After breakfast they wander back into the forest. I enjoy seeing them in winter. The scatter in the forest is spring and summer.
