Backyard Summertime Nature in New Jersey.
Fawn with spots resting while munching grass. That year the grass was still green at this time of the summer. Image take with a Nikon D3x camera and 600 mm f/4 VR lens (ISO 160, 600 mm, f/4, 1/100 sec).

We finally got rain, thunder and lighting starting at 03:00 this morning. Found my newest house pet when opening the garage for the contractor this morning. Most of my grass is dry, and really need the rain. Yesterday while driving back from a breakfast in Rahway I noticed most of the fields with corn or soybeans were all brown. I so much don’t miss doing the commute anymore. An hour and a half to drive 35 miles, even knowing the back roads. I guess schools have started and everyone is back from summer vacations.
