EMPS #6: Fences And What's Behind Them

Behind my fence is the woods. This used to be a wildflower area..now it is just wild. The mound in the center of the photo with the tall golden grass often serves as a lookout for deer. What do you suppose they are looking out for??? Chance the Border Collie who is our faithful companion ball herder run like the wind handsome photo model who loves kids and barks at the deer and wild turkeys kind of dog:)

  2. Sounds like my sort of dog... Our dog is pretty cool, too! In fact, your dog sounds like my dog's sort of dog...

  3. Hi Connie :)

    Oh my, Chance is a handsome model. He made me smile, thank you for that. Beautiful, beautiful photos as always. The first one is just stunning. It is exactly the kind of scene I would hope to come across. It would draw me right in.:) Very, very nice.

    Always, Carly

    Tami, He is a patient model, but when I went to the other side of the fence he flew right over the top from a sitting position..like he had springs for back legs! :)
