Dear deer
After some torrential rain this morning I went for a walk in the nature reserve. This doe was lying in exactly the spot I saw the deer last week, though instead of just before dawn it was around 2pm, which seemed unusual to say the least. I can't tell if it's the same individual, but it could be, and unfortunately not looking entirely happy. I don't think she was actually ill and she got up and lolloped away without difficulty, but I could see her eyes were bothering her. They looked kind of squinty and pouchy, so when I got off the reserve I went to see the Wildlife Trust.
Sadly the Wildlife Trust don't treat any animals on their patch. They told me the RSPCA would (which I knew) but only if I had the animal tied down (like I'm a cowboy). So all I can do is hope she will recover by herself.
This time I've posted the colour as main shot, but I really love the BW (in Extras) so reserve the right to change it ;)) Which I now have done
And to those of you who should have been awarded hearts last night for WFW09 I can only apologise. I fell asleep when I shouldn't have done and totally lost the plot. You will get them tonight!
Happy Thursday evening xx
