Deer on my Morning Walk
I was on an early morning walk (with my camera, of course) while I was away on a field assignment in New Braunfels, Texas, when I saw some deer. I stood as still as possible to photograph them.
These deer were having a great time frolicking in the morning dew. 
Peek-a-boo. 
Spider Webs on the Fence
While there is still dew on the grass, I can see some spider webs on the fence. When the temperature rises, they are gone.

Inside, Outside
Dumb bird. Dave didn’t know how it got inside.
For 45 minutes he chased it around his studio as it hopped around and squawked, eluding him. He stubbed his toe and spent a few minutes of his own squawking and hopping in pain. (So much for going barefoot.) Finally he managed to catch it. He checked it out and it seemed unharmed, just fatigued. He set the bird free, wished it well, and limped back inside.
As he closed the door he noticed a silhouette in the window. Yet another bird, inside his studio. Sighing, Dave reached for his shoes.

I love this spider. You can see the size of it when you compare it to a fellow hiker reading about the sculpture in the bottom right corner of the photo.

I passed by this artwork early in the morning. When I looked it up online, I found photos of it open. It is solar powered. I’ll have to go back and check it out in full sun.
