In Red Deer

At dusk last night three white tail deer were outside the apartment building. I was only a few feet away as I walked the back route into the building. We have a creek, now used as a drainage ditch for the city of Red Deer immediately north of the apartment. One of the deer paws the snow to eat the tender shoots of grass that lay beneath the blanket awaiting the warm of the spring melt. The deer were at peace with me,I was at peace with the deer. jay
