Here's a red reindeer from a couple of years ago...

...and here's one of the nine backyard deer in much the same pose.

I got to watch a Chestnut-backed Chickadee at the feeder yesterday.

I never know who is going to show up.

He worked away to pick off small bits of the peanuts.

You can see he has food in his bill.

Nice straight on photo.

After getting a morsel, he'd flit off to a small maple tree to consume it. 

Then back he'd come for another bite.

I chuckled over the pose of the deer you stitched and the one you captured via your camera. That chestnut-back chickadee has lovely coloring. Enjoy your day, Beth!
