What a joy to find this little one out on "her" own.
As soon as I opened the sliding glass door, though, "she" scampered off.

I suddenly glanced up from my chair only to find this buck no more than six feet away from me!
I grabbed my camera as he munched away.
Of course, he didn't move until I pleaded with him in a loud voice to please leave the butterfly bush for the butterflies!

This shot taken through the window and screen, but I think you get the idea of how intent this guy was!
