Some pass through and we only see them occasionally, but thanks to Nancy&#8217;s efforts at handing out apples to all comers, this spring we had two&nbsp;moms that produced three fawns. This photo was taken around June 1st. This second photo below&nbsp;was taken of the same twins just&nbsp;the other day, October 16, making them about five months old. That&#8217;s the same apple tree as in the first photo. They won&#8217;t take apples directly from our hands, but I think they would if we spent some time coaxing them. Mom&#8217;s still here too, and the three of them spend considerable time standing in the grass patiently waiting for the next cut-up apple. For East-coast readers, these are Columbian black-tail deer, much smaller and more delicate-looking than either mule or white-tail deer.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Twins-settled-in.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Twins-settled-in-600x390.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1996\" title=\"Twins-settled-in\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Thanks for reading this week.<br>Larry Eifert<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><a href=\"http:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\">Click <\/a>here to go to the online blog this was to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><a href=\"http:\/\/larryeifert.com\">Click <\/a>here to go to our main website &#8211; packed with jigsaw puzzles, prints, interpretive portfolios and lots of other stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><a href=\"http:\/\/nancycherryeifert.com\">Click<\/a> here to check out what Nancy&#8217;s currently working on with her photography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-medium-font-size is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-ad2f72ca wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s my monthly article for 48-North magazine.
