Mule Deer

I went searching for a particular wildflower on Sunday, after a friend had given me directions on where to find several. Well, I'm not always the best at finding things, so I still haven't been able to see and photograph these flowers. After climbing quite a steep trail - and I think it was about 21C on Sunday!!), someone kindly called out to me to let me know that there was a female Mule Deer with her two youngsters nearby. The light was very bright, not the greatest for photos, but this mum was so elegant. She eventually jumped a fence to get nearer to someone's garden and it was quite amusing to watch as one of the young ones stared at the fence as if not quite sure how it was supposed to leap such a high hurdle. Managed it just fine.
