Oh, deer!

I can easily remember the things we'd find in the yard when we lived in the city, such as:

• worms

• a really old rusted horseshoe

• cantaloupe rinds (the squirrels would bring them from the neighbors' compost pile)

• a dead bird

But nothing like this. Robert found the upper half of a deer skull.


That little white blob at the tip of the deer's nose? That's just a sock on my floor, a dirty one. Those are all too common inside my house. And I'll take socks over bones any time.
