Today was the first day in a week without rain! I came across a few things of interest.
The first was this slightly (well very) pregnant Whitetail doe. This is the normal time of year for the fawn (s) to be born. She is very, very close! I did see another doe with a gangly thing running to keep up across the field. I figure that one was maybe 2 days old.
A couple of mallards were in a small slew which was grossly over flood stage. They were not in any hurry to move, even with Daphne eyeing them up.
I found a couple of Killdeer along a sandy spit. When they sit, they are very hard to spot
They blend in very well
Unless, as shown in the next two photos, they flop around and do the broken wing act to get me away from the nest. I didn't look very hard to find it.
Its good to back out sleuthing around.
Life is good! Right?
