Bev sends this nice story:
Hello Everyone,
As I was tending to the animals this morning prior to getting ready for work I spotted a deer. Well, actually, the dogs spotted the deer. I see quite a few deer in my area and on our family property, but this one was different. As the dogs and I looked in the direction of the deer, the deer stood there looking at us. Such a beautiful animal. I wish I had a picture to attach, but couldn't get to the camera. I'll call her a "she". She was approximately 20-30 feet from me eating leaves from a tree. She gradually moved to the grape vines, stood still, looked at me for a few seconds... I said "you can eat my grapes"... she turned back and started eating from the vine. She looked back at me a few times while feasting from the grapevine. She looked at me once more and trotted off happily towards the woods. The dogs were so quiet after I stood still and told the deer she could eat the grapes. They stayed quiet for awhile after our unexpected visitor left. Such a nice way to start a day. Guess we all were happy she stopped by. By the way, I don't know if she ate the grapes or the leaves or both. Whatever she feasted on made her happy.
Have a great day!
Bev :)
Thanks Bev! And THANK YOU all my friends! Love, Vincent
