Early yesterday morning, I ran to the window, threw open the blinds and what to my wondering eyes should appear - but seven deer - resting in our backyard open area! 
They looked at me, very unconcerned with my photography efforts, and continued to enjoy the warmth of our backyard.
After about a half hour, they got up and lazily wandered away. This is our back patio with the deer just leaving. A fun surprise in these busy days just before Christmas.

What a rare photo! Even deer need a quite place of rest.
How cool is that? I actually dreamed about reindeer last night too.
WOW! Talk about a Christmas blessing! We see deer occasionally but most of the time is is a very quick glimpse as they dash back off the road.
