Even with ears up and eyes peeled Mom still assumes the role of crossing guard for two adolescent Mule Deer. Great Sand Dunes National Park, 2015. So much to learn so little time.

Gorgeous animals. Have you seen the PBS Nature program ‘Touching the Wild?’ A fabulous personal account of living among the mule deer in S. Dakota.
Hope you’re enjoying time outdoors, Mike.
Hi Shannon and thanks for the tip on the PBS program. We have not seen it but if we can get online and view it we will. Hop your having a great weekend.
Young white tailed deer amble through our back yard often. They are still learning.
Hi Jim, I bet it takes time to learn how to succeed in a human populated environment.
They are quite well adjusted once they figure it out.
Such adorable faces! Were they near a roadway and she was actually holding them back? That’d be amazing.
Hi Eliza, not sure if she was actually holding them back physically but it sure looked like a lesson being taught to hold yourself back when those cars are coming by.
