June morning

With deer in the garden nearly every day, I understand why previous residents didn't plant roses here. Roses are just about their favourite nosh. The creatures seem to leave this wall rose alone, though. I think it's 'Buff Beauty' and I can't seem to get a good photograph of it. Very pretty mixed up with the clematis and honeysuckle.

I like the impression of sweet neglect.

Lovely rose!
Have the deer got young ones yet?
And do they come,too?

Thank you! It's one of those which changes colour at all stages.

I think the currently troublesome ones are adolescents which have been cast off to fend for themselves. There was a baby but I can't remember which month of the year it was born in. All the nuzzling and protectiveness was very sweet.

How very lovely! I think that roses must be deer candy. We've had to put a net barrier around ours.

Deer candy: exactly!
