I Heart Faces Pets

…or other animals. 
This is a photo from last spring in the Rockies.  It’s a mule deer from a herd that crossed right in front of our SUV.  They are shorter and shaggier than the whitetail deer that are native to my Ohio.

A healthy looking deer with that coat.Excellent photo! We don't have mule deer around our parts but I still enjoy seeing the white-tails even though there are so many of them now.

Love the serenity of this photo. I can't believe we are dealing with snow already. Where did our summer go???
