snowing

 young mule deer with snow

Now half grown, one of this year’s babies captured as snow fell this morning. It was moving across the hillside with a group of does and young mule deer in a world gone white when I stepped out to make a few images. They stopped to nibble the trees, shrubs, and tall penstemon seed heads around my home before moving on into the trees and out of sight.

pygmy nuthatch with seed

The pigmy nuthatch comes close to me to get a seed from the just-filled feeder. The finch waits in the trees until I’ve gone back in the house to take his turn at the seed mixture.
