When we built the roof/Pagoda thingy over the deck by the pool I put a 3/4" piece of plywood up there and nailed it down. Fred asked me what the heck are you doing? I'm creating an observation deck. He wasn't thrilled until I mentioned that it might be a good place to sit during deer hunting season, then he smiled! Saturday I finally finished the ladder up to the observation deck and I've been sitting up there observing the countryside and loving it!
And of course I take the camera with me...Way across the creek is a windmill just peeking over the treetops!
The does started coming up from the creek just before sunset! I also saw a Northern Shrike and an American Kestrel (Sparrow hawk)....
The sun was hiding behind a cloud just before setting...
Sun slipping down under the horizon...
I managed to get a photo of 11 deer and spotted 13 total, all does and fawns...
It was a gorgeous evening and glad I got a chance to sit and observe.
