Three little, tiny babies!!

 Look what we saw on our bike ride in Pine this morning…..



 
….three babies and their mothers!

These are the youngest, tiniest baby Coues deer that we have ever seen.  An adult female Arizona Coues deer weighs only 65 pounds at the most.  So compared to a female Mule deer or a Whitetail deer which are at least 100 pounds, the Coues deer look like delicate, tiny porcelain deer figurines. And the babies we saw this morning were so precious and little—less than a foot tall!

What a gift to see these little babies!  We feel blessed to live side by side with so much wildlife and nature.  We will never grow tired of all the beauty that surrounds us.
