Note to the two deer that thought they were safe hanging out in our backyard yesterday morning: You're not safe.
Although I wasn't actually there to witness it, evidently Nova had Christmas come early yesterday. Mrs. Lime walked over to let Nova out for the morning. He quickly took off running across the yard after two deer who had wandered into our neighborhood. Mrs. Lime didn't notice the deer until he was already out the door and quickly started yelling at Nova to stop, thinking that he might get hurt trying to chase down a deer. He eventually broke off the chase, but I have no doubt that he had visions of deer dancing in his head all day long after that brief encounter.
