Resident deer + baby

Mother and baby deer came for a visit this morning along the grass bank in front of the house much to our black cat Maisie's surprise. Ray let Maisie out at 3.25 this morning for her hunting session and at that time in the early morning in the Highlands it is broad daylight.
The baby deer suddenly stopped and stared - possibly at the first cat it had seen but nobody was particularly bothered.

The weather has been misty and showery all week but by evening time the sun has often burst through the clouds enabling us to enjoy a drink outside and watch the sun go down gradually and stay outside until about 9.45 p.m. In another month the sun will set over the mountain at 11.30.p.m.
