There wasn't a second picture for this little puzzle, but I think it can be solved with just this clue, if you look carefully. This is right outside my house off the back deck. Can you find who is hidden among the snowy yew bushes? Eating them?
Clicking on the picture will enlarge it and allow for a better look. She was really quite bold. I realize there is also a tangle of grape vines and butterfly bush stems to make it more challenging, but keep an eye open for the - eye. Everything should become clear, once you find that.
I'll put a bit of space between the clue and the solution.

It's a yearling deer - last spring's fawn. Probably the one I carved nursing from its mom, since they both hang around the neighborhood. Do you see it? The dark diagonal right in the middle of the photo is its neck and the ears are pointing back toward its shoulders right above that diagonal. Her right eye is peering out between branches closer to the right side of the picture.
I had been looking out the back window at her mom when I realized someone was hidden among the bushes right against the house. Her nose is literally an inch from the outside wall.
I guess the yew needed a bit of a trim...

Nice pic ! She was well camouflaged for sure. Fun to see a deer so close. :^)

The deer have been known to climb up onto the deck to eat the yew they couldn't reach from the ground. I expect that soon - it's going to be really cold the next couple days.
Right up on the deck !? Wow. What fun to see, as long as they don't knock stuff over. ;^)

Nah, there's not much to knock over, especially in the winter. She was pretty bold, though. Hugs right back to you, BetsyLee!
I spotted it right away. Thanks, Sheila
