With the river frozen, the deer having been crossing it every morning and every evening from the island. We like to say they are having a 'Deer Party'. Around 5:30 every evening they come out of the woods in groups of 2 or 3 and meet up to form a long line as they cross the ice. The other evening they brought the party to our yard.... 15 in all. They crossed the back yard and went up the hill (probably to munch on our bushes) between our house and the neighbors. Twenty minutes later they emerged back down the hill and back across our backyard. Then eventually the 'Deer Party' crossed back to the island. If I will miss anything about this winter, it will be the evening deer crossing.
