Killing Deer for Sport

 October 14, 2023

   On our morning walk, as we were coming back off the hill from Morningstar, Uno suddenly stopped dead in his tracks and pointed with his nose towards a stand of cholla north of our house.

Do you see 'em?

   Here's a closer look.

Now do you see 'em?

   I counted ten deer amongst the cholla bushes and as we came upon them, I saw half the herd going across the road to the other side, which is why these deer are frantically looking in their direction. Any way you slice it, this is a very large herd of deer. 

Okay, NOW I see 'em!

   Thankfully, Uno only killed two and severely wounded a baby.

   Sorry, that's a joke. Uno did confess to me he would have liked to have smelled a couple anuses though. 

   Such is life.

"Sometimes you have to stop and smell the anuses."
