Deer Grazing

I haven't seen a lot of deer grazing over the winter in my backyard. Not sure if it's due to the mild winter we have had, or wether its due to the shrinking greenlands in our area. It seems all available greenspaces in the Durham region are being snapped up by developers for either residential or commercial purposes.

So, it was a nice treat to wake up this morning and see six deer grazing. A great way to start the morning off, but it also reminds me of crucial our greenspaces are and that we should make every effort to conserve all of mother natures resources.

Deer Grazing

Early Saturday evening prior to the sun going down, 8 deer came out of the woods and were grazing just behind the chain link fence that separates our backyard from a conservation area. It was a great site to see after spending the entire day outdoors. I had the pleasures of listening to the wind and the ways earlier on Rice Lake as well as the various birds already present. Now I got to relax and take in some does and their young. A great way to spend a quiet Saturday night.
