I live in a small town in southern Wisconsin (population around 1600). I love animals, especially cats and dogs and I am known as Mom by a bunch of cats. I like gardening (both vegetables and flowers) and I like to read. I also like writing and I have published a chidren's book called Wanda Weird. It's the story of a nine-year-old girl who is bullied by some mean girls in her class and how she learns to deal with them. I work in the garden center at a Walmart in Madison, WI. In the off season, I work in back-to-school, Halloween, Christmas, etc. AKA - "Seasonal". But garden season is by far my favorite.
I didn’t find my deer whistles yet, but I’ll keep looking. I found them recently when I was looking for something else, so I know I have some. All the same, I was ready to buy more at Walmart yesterday, but we didn’t have any. The count said we have 3, but there were none on the peg. Maybe they were stolen. I don’t have much of a bumper on my car, but maybe just enough to mount the deer whistles. I’m on vacation this coming week (Monday through Friday) so I have some time to dig in the closet for those whistles.
Anyway, I didn’t see any deer or any other animals on my drive home last night. I think I creamed a moth or some kind of bug that hit my windshield, but that was it. But driving to work yesterday, I saw a deer in the ditch in the general area where I saw the 2 fawns the other night. It wasn’t one of the fawns. This was an adult deer. Too far into the ditch to see its gender, but I can’t help wondering if it was the mother of those 2 fawns. That could explain why they were running around in such a confused state. I hope those fawns will be okay. If that was their mom, the poor babies must have been as scared as I was when I almost ran into them.
