Last Thursday was a busy day.  I had just finished my morning coffee and as I rinsed out the cup, I looked out the window.  There were a couple of visitors lounging on the front lawn.

Sylvia and I have seen these youngsters a few times this year.  This was my first chance to capture an image.  As I approached the window, camera in hand, they saw me and decided to move.

At first they moved slowly as they continued to enjoy chewing on the tall grass.  (I mowed the next day.)

Then they moved a little faster toward the shelter of the pines.

Soon they had reached sanctuary, and they disappeared into the trees beside the corn field.  I finished rinsing my coffee cup and went back to the project at hand.  It had been a very good morning.
