One day last week 4 deer were bedded down west of the house among some weeds. I saw Rusty walking down a path that took him toward them, but not directly. Weeds along a fence line kept him hidden from the deer, and vice versa. When he reached a gap, one of the deer saw him, lifted its head higher, and pricked its ears up. Rusty saw that, stopped in his tracks, then turned and ran off. Apparently he doesn't hold the "I'm really a mountain lion" fantasy.

Rusty sounds like a smart kitty! Hoots still has his illusions...
Very artistic photo!
