Urban Roe

This rather fine stone-walled house is just the other side of the Golspie Burn, upstream from the footbridge. We passed it this morning on our way to the woods but Mrs MW noticed, just to the left of the large grass tussock at centre of the picture....

....a roe deer. It stood absolutely still, watching us, apparently quite unconcerned, even though we might have had a dog with us and it was only about twenty metres from us.

It was as if it was determined to out-stare us, and only moved off when....

....we crossed the bridge and approached a little closer - and even then it was in absolutely no hurry.
