Creatures

We regularly see deer on our local walks:

Also deer have a tendency to lie down in the long grass and it's very difficult to see them:


Now when Kin's off the lead, he has a tendency to run and then do a high speed roll, I'm going to have to try and get this on video, it's really funny to watch; anyway he did this a few mornings ago at about 0600, and as he rolled a deer sprang up out of the grass, very close to him, and went off at a rate of knots, the really funny thing was, so did Kin, but running away from the deer! Kin get's spooked easily and then gets distance, whilst looking over his shoulder to have time to think what to do!

We also walked under this lady:


All the above pics are taken local to where we live, with a phone camera.

Now the local council have a hole digging fetish, and they have been feeding this fetish over the last few years by digging up all the roads around my house - to the extent that I went flying after work a couple of months ago and on returning it was no longer possible to get back to my house the way I'd driven out a few hours earlier - the car was abandoned and we progressed back on foot - but it's got sooooo bad that even the deer are stumped as to which way to go:
This was taken from one of the windows in my house... the deer is trying to figure out where to go with three out of the four directions blocked (she jumped a neighbour's fence, I lost site of her when she jumped the next fence).
