I was walking on the treadmill the other day, watching YouTube on my tablet, and this little sweetie crept in below nibbling on anything green. I looked around and no one seemed to notice him/her. I quietly said to the housekeeper dusting the machine next to me, "deer" and pointed. She had a quizzical look on her face, and I pointed again. Then her face lit up. Right there not 10 feet away from us. She pulled out her phone and had a photo before I did.
I regularly see Bald Eagles, a couple of weeks one was circling the building rising on the thermals as I was walking back from the gym. A couple of days ago, two of them were perched in the top of a tree as I drove down the George Washington Parkway past the Belle Haven Country Club, I slowed down, and realized I was the only one of a dozen drivers who noticed the majestic birds so close.
One of my wishes for the coming year, is to keep my eyes open, to see the wonders around me. To find beauty, wonder, adventure and funkiness around me.
I spy deer alot here. Just the other night I took my trash out and about 6 deer ran from the yard. Often see them at the woods edge in the park too when walking the dogs.
ReplyDeleteYes, keep your eyes open. What a wonderful sighting.
