Dot!

A doe I fancy I can recognize from year to year - by means of the spot of white on her nose - whom I have dubbed "Dot." She is the one who comes regularly during the lean times to eat the nuts she knows she'll find right outside the house under the big maple tree. The same tree with the nice hollow where the large lower limb joins the trunk - where I put the peanuts for the birds and squirrels. Anyhoo - she showed up this morning with two other deer and was the only one who came straight over to help herself to some peanuts. Everyone seems to absolutely love peanuts. And, of course, I love her.
