The Twins Post Spots?

  My little orphan twin deer are still hanging around, I think. They have joined up with some other deer, but there is still a set of two, one a little smaller than the other, that come very close to the house. Of course it gets increasingly difficult to recognize individual deer after a while. Here they are in September.

And here they are this week. I'm pretty sure it's the twins because they pay attention when I talk to them and don't get spooked. All the others lift their tails and prepare to leap away, but the larger of these two just looks at me, and the smaller one glances between me and the larger deer. Similar behavior every time.

I was thinking about doing a philosophical post about the hike today, but Om and I went to a movie this evening, and now I'm just too tired to write something serious. Another day.

In other news: I edited in the morning, did laundry, made yogurt, and worked on the trailer all afternoon. Made good progress, but I don't get to cross off a single thing. Movie this evening. 36 BIG ITEMS and 21 small ones to go. 43 days left.
