The buck stayed in the yard all day (we're guessing he is really happy eating the acorns that have been falling for the past week or two) and I took the opportunity to snap some more photos.

Of course I left Brownie in the house.  

Good thing, because look who else was around.

Later, when Brownie wanted to go outside, I checked for the buck first - but didn't see him anywhere.  Brownie wandered up the hill (where the buck hadn't been) and then came inside.  Come to find out that the buck had just been lying down behind some bushes and hadn't left the yard after all.  

Once again Mr. Buck was looking at us -

as we were looking at him!

Walked Brownie in the rain tonight.  He was less than thrilled, darting under trees every chance he got while I, of course, stayed dry in Terry's raincoat.  No surprise that Brownie acted extremely happy to be back inside and in his nice dry bed.
