This morning about 6 am when I looked outside there was an adult doe mule deer standing on the pond berm. I see similar incredible events every day and am never prepared to photograph any of them. Even though she couldn't see me, I just froze and stared at her. Then instead of going for the camera I called my brother and sister and told them. By the time I got back to the window she was running away. My brother said he got to watch her for a few minutes and she was healthy and beautiful. He also said that a neighbor to the south has been seeing a doe and buck pair by his house. It's just so odd that just a few years ago they weren't seen in this area.
