Deep In The Woods

Have you ever taken a walk deep in the woods and suddenly come upon a lone deer staring at you. She stands motionless in the darkness so that you would have missed seeing her except by accident. If you don't move neither will she until you make the first move. All the while her nose keeps twitching trying to catch your scent which identifies you as a friend or foe. Suddenly in two hops she disappears into the darkness of the woods. The reason you saw her at all was a stream of light shining through, lighting up a single tree which drew your gaze in her direction. Such is the wonder of a nature walk. So worth while!
