Caught this curious pair of Mule Deer on the lookout for something tasty to nibble on in the garden. The fellow on the right didn't stay long but the other one wasn't so flighty and gave me a few more nice shots before heading back toward the garden.

Wow! what a beautyful encounter you've got there. And you capture them in a perfect lighting. You also caught their face expression nicely. Bad news for you Heather. I guess they will be back soon for that yum,yum garden. Such is life.

Thank you for your comment Debra. No damage to speak of, just a few tracks and they left shortly after so I was lucky to have spotted them when I did. They certainly are a nice looking pair and it was especially nice to be able to view them close up.
