We had an amazing thing happen this afternoon. While on our Saturday ride
thru the
backcountry south of Olympia, we spotted this deer. I have many shots....We saw it in this field. We stopped to see what was around its neck. Turns out, someone must have tied this bright orange thing around its neck to protect it. It was loosely tied on, and was
definitely done on purpose. Initially Joyce walked up ahead of the bike to see if she could get close enough to evaluate the situation. The deer would have nothing to do with that. It just decided to walk right up and visit us. After receiving lots of water from Joyce's water bottle, and smelling the seats of the bike real good.....it decided to give Joyce a kiss. We visited with it for about 30 minutes......and then it walked into the field next to us and we rode away......wow....nature! We love it, that's the main thing we get from riding our bike; is getting out into nature.
