Suninfrance Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Sorry not a hugely brilliant picture (I'm still getting to grips with my new camera), but we had two of them wandering across the bottom of our garden the other morning.[IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a231/suninfrance/Deer.jpg[/IMG]Seen here picking it's way through the b****y molehills. Even when there is frost on the ground the moles are still active [:@] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

londoneye Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Emily ?No seriously she is lovely (or he). I should take my camera with me when I go out, but I never do somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suninfrance Posted January 5, 2008 Author Share Posted January 5, 2008 I always forget to take my camera with me, but this one was taken out of my kitchen window (which I will get around to cleaning one day). Had to jiggle about with the brightness on my camera programme, but at least it's not just a silhouette now. It wasn't moving very fast, but by the time I'd sorted out the settings on my camera it was heading for the tree, which is where it's partner had disappeared to by the time I'd got myself organised.Ever since I threatened to go out for a walk with the camera, it's been raining - typical. Due for rain for the next three days as well, so no chance of any good photos there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixie Toadstool Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Well I'm not known for my originality and so I would name her Bambi!Looks like a female roe deer to me!Pixxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixie Toadstool Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Strange ... just after I posted that reply I nipped down the bottom of our garden here in Hampshire and there looking at us was a naughty muntjack - eating my variegated laurel! We get roe deer too who love our roses - but they are lovely to look at!Pixxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Stunning picture, love the pose with the front leg off the ground. Can't see any moles though. I would love to see some deer here, have seen foot prints, thats all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furry Knickers Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 It looks like a Christmas card, it's lovely. I would call that deer Ann! She reminds me of Princess Ann. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trees and background foliage/plant life look very painterly. I would be overjoyed If I'd taken it.I would be even more overkoyed if I'd seen it out of my kichen window.[:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furry Knickers Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I would love to see a big polar bear out of me own kitchen window.Grand words Mrs Tresco[:)] Painterly, overkoyed and trees are all very lovely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furry Knickers Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I've never seen a rabbit wearing glasses! You know overkoyed? In Kildare that means you have too many carps and they call baguettes snake breads because they are snake shaped. Me mammy would always say "bring me up one of them snakes will ya" I still call them snakes too. They have a lot of snake shaped things in Ireland too now.[kiss] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furry Knickers Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Would you like me to take some of them carps off yer hands? Did you know they are Japanese yokes? "where is that snake bread" said me mammy, "It's below" said I to her! "would you skin it before it gets too soft" said she, "I will" said I to her! I was after going to see the dolphin in Dingle harbour at boxing day, and I asked this quare owl lad "where's that dolphin?" He's below said the lad! If you ask a Irish lad where something is, he always say's "below" How nice is that[:-))] I'm off below now[:-))][:-))] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furry Knickers Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 They are very calming indeed[:)] Most people like to look at koy carp, gracefull and all elegant as they glide along the water, but I like to hear them and I like to sing to them in various costumes depicting the seaons. What do you wear when singing to your carp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
