Bob the beaver is still around he swam by last night, but while I was looking for him the other morning this raccoon ran by. Sandy has a story to tell of going out on the lawn in the middle of the the night to chase away a stray cat but it was no cat, but Bob, when she got within three feet he sort of growled a little. She came to find me and he was gone. This is her story but remember it was in the middle of the night.

While walking to work through the cemetery today, I was surprised by this fawn beside the path. I have started taking my camera home every night for the wild life out the window so it was on my back with a long zoom lens. I was able to take a photograph without getting too close. I didn't see Mother deer but she could not be to far away.

We are back from a short break and there is always many things to do. Here is a photo I thought you just had to see, Looking out the back window, the front of the house faces the river the back of the house the road, I saw my first fawn of the season.
