what is that?

I had just packed my gear in my vehicle and begun driving when I saw a mother deer with her doe by the side of the road. By the time I stopped and readied my camera the two had moved from the ditch onto the road. The mother was obviously cautious and watchful, but also curious enough to have a long look. I spoke quietly to them, which may or may not have an effect. Eventually the mother headed across the ditch, over the fence and into the field, with the doe following. A lovely encounter in the RM of Longlaketon, Saskatchewan.
