The spider

I was sitting inside today, spinning some more alpaca, listening to Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd. Waiting on the eclipse. It was getting a little darker. I looked up and saw this. I had noticed the outside door, that used to have a screen in it but not any more, had a nice huge web all the way across the opening. She must have thought it was turning to night time and she came out to eat. She wasn't out long. I think she got mad.

Deer Darcy

Can you see her, right in the middle of those trees?  That's Darcy. She's been hanging around the outside of the fence where the goats are for the past several days. My husband first saw her out the bathroom window one morning under the trees on the other side. She'll listen when we talk to her. She's so pretty.

I don't know why she's alone. We have seen a whole herd of deer over on the North side of us. I hope she's ok. She looks young.

And this is why I have to give the alpacas Ivermectin every month. They carry parasites that can be transmitted to alpacas. Menegial worms. Probably shouldn't encourage her too much. But she's so pretty and sweet.  She will be called Deer Darcy.

My view..

My view today, while I'm spinning some alpaca. So pretty. And a horse to boot!
