Guess what we saw?

We just went for a little walk in the woods near our house to find something that Rachel and Hannah needed for a Faith in God activity. In the woods, Peter saw a deer! He said it was a dog, and Daddy told him what it really was. Then we went back a few steps where we had already been walking in the woods, and everyone saw the deer. Every time it saw us it disappeared. Then we went a bit further back and we saw it really clearly through the trees in a clearing. It turned and looked at us and then quickly bounded off as if it was in a hurry.



It was a bit like this deer in the picture. It was sort of light brown. Its tail was sort of like a rabbit. Daddy only knew it was a deer because he recognised how it ran - they sort of leap, with their bottoms in the air! It was pretty surprising because there's never been a deer in Pig Wood before, at least not that we know of.

With lots and lots of love from Sarah xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Wow! How fun! I don't think I ever saw any wild animals in England (apart from rabbits, do they count?)!
