Exploring!


We may live in the city, but we sure enjoy exploring the nature around us! Today at the North Park Nature Center we had three different deer sightings - each more exciting than the last. First we saw a beautiful doe staring at us from behind a tree, next a large buck jumped in front of us (too fast for a photograph!) and last we came face to face with this beauty. No special camera lenses here - we were probably less than 20 feet from this amazing creature!



Although our own little deer had been hoping to see some ducks at the Nature Center, he seemed pretty impressed with the deer - and tried a few antlers himself!
