Check This Out


 So it's nothing out of the ordinary to see a few of these guys 'round here, and dad regularly sees their tracks when he's out on the trails at work.  However, this was the first time he got to see a bunch of 'em frolicking right next door, and this was after they froze in their tracks as they do when they first spotted dad watching.  They stared for a moment, then just continued with their play before slipping off into the woods.

How lovely! We have some around here too but they are very, very skittish!

Have a great weekend!

Purrs,

We have such a big herd in our yard all the time that sometimes it's a bit aggravating. However I still think they're a handsome animal and you really did a great job on that video, thanks. So Cleo you all have a great weekend and hope you get lots of sunshine. Up here we had an ice storm last night.

What a delightful vision!
Cleo, about your dad liking coffee, does he drink it as hot as lava and as black as sin, like The Hubby does?
Gak!
Give me a cup of Earl Grey or Irish Breakfast Tea; that's the most caffeine I can do.

they are so graceful and beautiful!! But...I hate when they come charging into the street when I'm driving. They are dangerous!!

As much as I enjoy seeing them, if we don't stop stealing their habitats they will soon be playing on our front porches ...

Great video. Looks like they were having a lot of fun. I thought your Dad knew that he can post other things, but must include a photo of you. :)
