Remember: <em>Apple Please<\/em>?<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0This week I&#8217;m showing two more. (Sorry, but the little fawn above was taken quickly and isn&#8217;t available.) \u00a0A year ago we had two does that birthed three fawns. There was another mom that showed up occasionally with twins too, and one afternoon they were all here at once: three moms with FIVE fawns! It was crowded, but everyone seemed to get along Okay &#8211; but what do we know. The more I watch them, the more I see the social life of these guys seems very complex.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>This painting is of the dominant doe that&#8217;s been here for years &#8211; the mother of the fawn above.\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0She has this look! See the way she just\u00a0pierces\u00a0you with that blank stare? She&#8217;s checks out the house, circles around it to find out where we are &#8211; which room we&#8217;re in, then comes right up to one of our big windows where she gives us the &#8216;stink eye&#8217; for a handout. No movement, no blinking, no acting\u00a0coy or cute, she just stares until you give in. Cats do this, we know (boy, do we know), but a 160 lb deer doing it is something else again. And Nancy gives in pretty quickly: &#8220;okay, okay, meet me at the back door&#8221; and it&#8217;s as if the deer understands completely. Back door it is!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"color: #ff4b33; line-height: 24px;\" href=\"http:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Black-tail-11.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2253\" style=\"border: 0px;\" title=\"Black-tail-1\" src=\"http:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Black-tail-11-435x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"435\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">This ORIGINAL painting is acrylic on canvas, 9&#8243; x 12&#8243; and $140 unframed.<\/span><\/div>\n<p>I have a nice gold frame on it for an upcoming \u00a0gallery show, which makes it a total of $160 and shipping adds just a bit more depending on your zone or if you want to take the frame.
