Walking on Water

Lows were in the teens this week and the pond froze enough to support White-tailed Deer.


Ice is forming upstream, but next week will be warmer and it might be a while before anyone walks on the river.

Hi Grace,
It doesn't really show in this picture, but the deer walked out a couple of meters, then came back. I wonder if it's a matter of trust, or if they somehow intuit what's safe and what's not.
The temps have been up and down and up and down here, too! It's a crazy Winter so far.
Thank you for your faithful visits, even though I haven't had much energy to be responsive lately.
Hugs,
Jain
