Today...

 It was a chilly, crisp morning
 but finally the sun came out for a little while.
 i was so busy looking up
 that i almost missed her
Several yards ahead of Zinnia and i, a young fawn stepped out of the underbrush, crossed the bikepath, looked at us, and disappeared into the woods. By the time i grabbed my camera to take her picture, she was gone. What a beautiful gift...

It is a magical moment when you see them isn't it. I always remember my walk in the woods one Winter when I came to the stream, there were 2 of them drinking. Just like you, we looked at each other for a few moments and then they trotted off. I felt so humbled.

It's a beautiful thing to come close to them, and if they trust you, they do linger a bit. I came home and looked up "deer" and the message that deer bring was kindness and gentleness...a great gift for the day...
