Oh Deer!

Hello all! Welcome to my paragraph about the winter that will NEVER end! Another solid 8" yesterday. I can't take it anymore. The only saving grace is that it has definitely brought the wildlife out of the conservation land behind our house. The deer have been in the backyard on the nightly basis. One night Ernie let us know they were there. We got up and there were seven, eating and a couple were even having fun standing on their hind legs and wrestling.
For the first time in seven years of living here we had a Bobwhite Quail. He was hanging out in one of the Crabapple trees, doing some serious munching. By the time we got the camera out we got one shot of him taking off. Hope you all enjoy the photo's and please.....THINK SPRING!!!!!
