Oh Dear ... It's That Deer Time Of Year!

 Our fall visitors are arriving and driving the westies nuts ...

and needless to say the westies are driving us nut as well!

 Resting & snacking before going over to see what goodies
our neighbors have to eat in their yard.

 Having floor to ceiling windows  are they an advantage

or disadvantage?  Guess it depends what time of day it is.

Derby

... Julep ...

 Julep on the hunt.

My what big pink ears you have!

 Derby knows the deer are in the woods.

 Tails ... we have one with a curve & one with a straight.

At times this is the only way I can tell them apart.

 The geese honk - Julep barks.  She is a little barker!

 Good morning ... I came for breakfast & all I got was barking westies!

 The deer have set their pattern which is a morning stroll

for breakfast through our yard.  Every year we go through

this and you would think the westies would get use

to the deer ... but they do not!

 See the spot on Julep's back leg?  We had a scare when I found

a big lump last week.  The vet did a deep core skin punch and

sent it out to pathology ... it came back as a fatty lipoma ...

non-cancerous.  Thank goodness!

... Derby in Action ...

It's a busy time of year for the westies as there

are a lot of things coming and going through

the yard to keep them barking busy.
