White Tailed Deer and More

We just got back from a short trip down to southeast Oklahoma. We rented a cabin and packed a lot of stuff, including relaxation time, in just a few days.

We saw lots of deer. This one we spotted close to an automatic feeder. That is a great way to get deer to show up, or me for that matter. Just feed me and the deer on a regular basis.

The cabin we rented had a deer feeder.

The feeder went off at 6 am every morning for just a few seconds.

The deer hang out eating until about 6:45 and then they wandered off. I guess a neighbor’s feeder came on a 7?

They are very beautiful to look at and graceful in their movements.

You can tell they are used to people but still watchful.

All sorts of grey squirrels showed up to feast from the feeder.

And this critter showed up and stood stone still for many minutes. Just inside the hadows I didn’t get a decent photo of it. I don’t think I have ever seen such a critter. Google Lens says that it might be a swamp rabbit. Inaturalist is still pondering the results of my crappy photo.

Our little seven pound pomeranian puppy Kodi is getting swimming lessons from Heather on the Mountain Fork River. The little dog a trooper on the trail, straining his leash out ahead of us.

We came across this charred wooden bear on one of the walks in our cabin neighborhood. I’m guessing that it was done on purpose. Why, I don’t know.

Our cabin had a baby sasquatch inside. I love the big feet!!

We had a great time on our trip!!

I’m linking with Eileen’s Saturday’s Critters. Go check it out.

    …the rabbit was camera shy? I see plenty of bear craving, but a charred one, neat!

    Hello,
    I always love seeing the deer, what a lovely sight to see every morning. The rabbit is camera shy.
    The bear and bigfoot statues are cool. Good luck to Kodi with the swimming lessons.

    The deer and squirrel are so cute! And of course Kodi is the cutest! That looks like a swamp rabbit to me. Love the wooden bear, sad it was burned. And who wouldn’t love to have that baby sasquatch? I know I would!
