On a fairly recent cold day in Siouxland I visited Bacon Creek Park to see what might be about and a chance for a short, quick walk. The weather not really conducive to spending long periods outdoors if didn’t have to, but also having a bit of cabin fever, sometimes short trips and a quick look about is in order.
As I saw these deer looking for some sustenance on this day in snow covered terrain I knew I didn’t have it so bad, leaving a warm house, a meal to return to and a chance to see some nature in action, as limited and calm as it was. Some days are made for a second cup of coffee and contemplation of all that is right.

If they only knew how to make waffles ha! The deer are herding up again here now that the long bow season and the few shotgun weekends are past. Must have been a low cull this year as we are already seeing groups of 25 or more.
Well, I don’t mind seeing them out and about when walking in preserves or through woods. I realize to some they create mischief but we humans have been encroaching on their habitat for decades. Thanks for visiting.
