The longer daylight hours have provided more opportunity to see the four legged friends that have been visiting the backyard under the cover of darkness.  My deer friends arrive at almost the same time everyday.  They make the rounds of the neighborhood; raiding bird feeders.

There is a group of six that travel together.  I saw them in the trees a couple of days ago and knew they were on their way to my yard.  Not long after seeing them, they ducked under the bottom string of barbed wire and filed into the yard one behind the other.  
 
They toured the yard; emptying all the feeders and then came to the water puddles close to the house. All were fed and watered within thirty minutes and were off again to the next yard.

What fun it is to watch them in action.  I was standing at the corner of my garage just a short distance from theses beauties.  They glanced up at me, appeared to realize that they were in no harm and continued doing what they came to do.
