Night Deer

I noticed when I filled up the bird feeders that they emptied out really fast. I blamed it on the asshole squirrels. Last night showed me that it might have been someone else.

At about 11 last night I woke up and happened to look out the window. I know the moon is only a few days past new, but it must have been really bright. I could see a shadowy figure by one of the feeders. A four legged fury silhouette. The feeder was empty but our guest was picking crumbs out of the snow. It was a deer. It was pretty cool spying on her as she trespassed on our property and stole from the birds. I think it was the closest I’ve seen one of them come to the house. I got up and turned on the bathroom light and she bolted.

It was pretty cool.
