A new resident


This young female roe deer has taken up residence in the garden. This is the third day in a row - at first she appeared to be injured - moving slowly and awkwardly - but after many hours peering at her through the camera, I can't see anything obvious (though I'm no expert) and she is eating well.  But she's hanging around for some reason and never leaves the garden boundary. She has no other company which is unusual too as normally they are fairly social (historically, they've hang around the fields surrounding the house in groups of 3 or 4). I've emailed a local deer group for their thoughts so we'll wait and see.
