It’s finally spring in Maine.
The temperatures are warming, the grass is greening and the deer in our backyard are spoiled rotten brats.
We put out a few bowls of grain and chopped apples in the late afternoon and enjoy watching them stroll leisurely up from the woods.
Yes, I’m talking about you.
So imagine my surprise the other day as I was taking pictures…..
And this one stuck his tongue out at me.
How’s that for appreciation?
Yeah, you.
Hey now…
Cut it out!
Don’t give me that look.
Cheeky little bugger.
Lovely photos. But my goodness, such manners!

Ugh. If they swing in on a wrecking ball, I’m definitely going to stop feeding them.

It wasn’t being rude. What you’ve got there is a deer/lizard hybrid testing the air with its tongue. Fun fact: If you pull off its tail, it grows another…

Well that’s a relief. Hybrid anomalies beat bad manners any day…. and also explains the woodchuck who flipped me off last week.

Squirrels are much more civilized. I think (and I stress the think) the only time I ever caught a picture of a squirrel with its tongue out was when I was taking pictures of a squirrel who was licking the “cheese product” out of one of those dipping stick packs someone threw away. Maybe your dear deer would like that…

Our cats used to stick out their tongues like that when they were super relaxed and HAPPY! 😀

Oh “deer”!
So neat you can watch them so close though! Maybe you need to install a salt lick out there for them?

Great pics – super fun to be able to sit back and watch them like that. We used to drive thru a forest preserve with our guys when they were really little so we could look for deer at sunset. We were excited when we saw ONE, you hit the jackpot there!
