When they see approaching cars or people, they stand as if they pose as models. Nature's beauty. Ernilando

Beautiful view in this one. I love the last line--so fitting as seeing deer at peace is indeed a work natural art. Nice use of imagery. Nice one! Karen

They do look like they're posing, Barbara. "Living sculpture" is a creative way of describing one of nature's most beautiful offerings. Lovely Haiku!
