The Glade is Deer to Us

Deer on the golf course behind our house. March 3, 2009.

Tuesday afternoon Betsy called to me to get my camera and come into the living room.  There were deer on the golf course behind our house.

I know Betsy told you about the deer in her blog of Wednesday morning and she used some of the pictures we took.  But I couldn’t resist playing around with Picasa and making the collage above.  Picasa has been one of the nice bonuses of our new computers.

The weather has finally moderated here and I was able to get some work done in the yard yesterday afternoon.  I got two roses planted — Spellbound and Radiant Perfume.  They’re replacements for two roses that didn’t survive our two-year drought, so they don’t  change the varieties we have.  I have some other roses that need to be planted, so I hope the weather continues to be mild.

    I love seeing deer and never tire of seeing them.
    I saw a few more today on my walk – no pictures though.

    You are lucky to get the photos of them. My associates scare the wildlife away, most of the time.

    LOL! I like the header.
    Deer are such lovely, elegant animals. Excellent shots too. Picasa is addictive. I give you that.

    I wish for good planting wheather for you and Betsy, George. I also look forward to seeing lots of lovely shots from your garden through the summer 🙂

    Those are truly beautiful animals! I see them sometimes where I live, but never got the chance to capture them with the camera. They run too fast! And here you have a lot of them!
