Deer at my home

Later in the afternoon after 
photographing the buck near the church,
these deer came to my place and 
hung out for over an hour.


 They didn't like that I came out the front door 
but even then only ran a few yards.








These deer just keep hanging around

While driving home from the bank I noticed this buck 
coming through the field near our church
so I parked the car, got out, 
 and sat behind a snow bank as he came up past me.







 I had to move from behind the bank a little more
 so I could still photograph him.

 That's when he figured out I might be a threat.



 He moved around the trees of the home next to the church so 
I walked over to the other side of the trees as well.
This smaller buck was over there and it didn't 
take long to realize he had an injured back leg near it's hoof.


 The older one then came into view and it was 
very apparent he was the dominant one since the 
injured smaller buck moved away as he came closer.
 This little one was across the road in another yard.

 A third larger buck was also in that yard.
