We often see deer in the late afternoon at the Annandale Community Park (where we saw the Butterfly Bench). Lucy would catch their scent as soon as she gets out of the car and she would lead us straight to them. The video shows our approach towards the deer. Lucy was instinctively silent as she stalked her prey, but once we got about 10 feet away from the deer, she just couldn’t contain herself anymore and started barking loudly and pulling hard on her leash. You can hear her shrilly bark at the very end of the video clip. The deer took off as soon as she started.

Hmmm…looks like the parks down there have as many deer who’ve lost their fear of humans as ours up here…though, apparently, they can still get frightened away by the savage canine…
Geez, Holly, this is like two posts in one day…you blog more when you’re out of town than I do when I’m home with nothin’ to do…

Wow..the deers are camouflage so well in the woods that I can barely see until they move around! Great video!

very cool. they didn’t seem to mind you being there till the end.
ann´s last blog post ..What do you see?
I am impressed at Lucy’s ability to remain silent. Nora has this stalking instinct with squirrels, but anything larger, from cats on up, is insta-bark.
Hope you are ok and that your dad is feeling better.
