Who’s watching?

Who’s watching? I hope you haven’t been watching your inbox for a new post; it’s been a while. I usually prefer to be outside when the weather is nice, and there’s always something to keep me busy. Today is hot and humid, and I decided to try and get this updated.

So, who is watching? I’ve been watching for fawns and finally got a brief glimpse of one about 10 days ago. Since then, I’ve seen only a couple of does with their fawns crossing the gravel road (one pair much too close to the highway!) and one pair that passed by the house earlier today.

Who else is watching? Last year’s fawns—Bambi, Bro, and Lil—watch for me most mornings, often from just outside the basement door. And one morning Bambi watched me walk up to him and didn’t even bother to get up!

Tom and Tommy watch for me in the afternoons, although sometimes Tom also watches for hens to see if they will watch him.

And I watch for critters as I walk, although I know they are much more aware of me than I am of them. This year I am being watched by lots of cottontail rabbits (Sylvilagus floridanus), many more than I remember from past years.

Sometimes I’m watched by deer as I walk; Bambi and Bro recognize me.

And sometimes I watch them take care of their business. 🙂

Now I,m watching the meadow to see if it’s time to feed, watching the muchachos and Moseby as they work on their relationship,

and watching the clock tell me that it’s feeding time! Maybe I’ll see more fawns before the next post!
