Christmas Visitors

This is a very common sight in Cranbrook. The deers wander quite freely through out the city anytime of the year.
This was what we saw looking out the living room window at my brother-in-laws. It was fun watching these deer. Also if you look closely you can see a gentleman in the background. He was working on putting the finishing touches on a backyard skating rink.
We are staying inside today as we celebrate Christmas Day together as a small family.
Wishing all of my wonderful friends on 365 a very Merry Christmas

[Danette Thompson]

[Christie Hicks]

I always love seeing deer in the yard. Nice to see three together. Now you'll have to catch a shot of some kids enjoying that skating rink. That's great to have one right next door.

We are visiting family in Florida and actually ate Christmas dinner on the patio. But they also had deer in their yard!

A wonderful sight to see on Christmas. Hope you've been enjoying your holiday.

A beautiful sight to see on Christmas & how neat the neighbor has his own ice rink in the yard.

[❀ Lynn]

What a great sight to see on Christmas (or any time) and it's nice to see the backyard rink being done.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

This is a common sight in my backyard too! And ages ago my dad used to make a small skating rink for us in our backyard- that was a fun memory! Wishing you and your family a wonderful holiday and many blessings in the year to come!
