We spent Saturday morning at a local park with Mio, and had some interesting animal sightings!  While Mio was on the swings, a fawn just casually trotted out of the bushes behind the swingset.

Skinny fawn
Skinny fawn. It was so tame, and wasn’t scared of us at all. It just kept walking around the area, eating as it went.

 

Also spotted by the playground: a cute little fox!

I swear we don’t live in the sticks. haha* But it’s nice to see some wild animals once in a while… it shows that the neighborhood is pretty animal-friendly and a lot of the natural environment is well-preserved. 🙂
