I happened to look out the window in time to catch a family of mule deer crossing the yard. The buck led the way through a path recently made by a moose. The deep snow is making it difficult for the deer and especially the fawns as they move around in search of food which is getting harder for them to access.

I love this image Heather along with your narrative. It certainly does show the struggles that wildlife has maneuvering through the deep snow and finding food. A great moment with the proud buck in the lead and the little doe looking back at you. Hopefully they have seen the worst of winter and temperatures will warm and the snow will start to melt.
