Doe, a deer, a female deer…
Erway Farms raises deer and I just showed the boys. The girls were asking for a little face time, so I am much obliged.
They are a kissy bunch.
This is Dottie below, a piebald deer.
More kissing….
And more…
Ray, a drop of golden sun
A pretty morning sun start to the day. The creek is just in the background. Garden Walk Garden Talk will have more photos of Dottie. She is a real ham and camera hound. You will love her expressions.
I thought you would have ended the post with you your own photo; Me, a name I call myself!
Lovely deer photos. That’s what my dogs do all the time too.
It looks cold over there.
Awww…great captures! Your deer are much bigger than the deer we have in the south. Ours look scrawny in comparison.
Ra a golden drop of sun….I love these candid shots…such a close knit group of friends and family…our deer are as friendly toward one another except when the fawns arrive…
haha, i love this. And the deers are so cute, i remember our goats who kiss all the time. Next time I request you to include, fa…far a long, long way to run; with a circuitous long road and a deep perspective which end at a promise beyond!
I love deer. Thankfully the fence keeps them out of my back garden otherwise I might not see them as so endearing [pun intended]. I wish I could take closeup photos like you’ve got here. These are just delightful. Have a wonderful Christmas.
Thank You for making me your fave
. Nice pictures. But, why do farms raise deer? What do they do with them?
I guess I should answer this question as others probably have wondered too. It is NOT for food. But, it is for a reason that may cause some concern by animal lovers like myself. The males are for display as are the female at Christmas to entertain the children. These deer have a very nice life. But the farm also has a business called Buckeye Scents. What this is… is bottled doe urine that is frozen and then thawed to use at hunting time. It lures in the bucks and usually the more dominant ones in the territory for the hunters. It is a hunting aid. The does have a building where they sleep and the urine is collected from them there.
Great shots of beautiful creatures!
very cute
