postcards from the wild
{an irregular series of postcards from our wild friends. this one is from a deer named sam. previous postcards: fred, constance.}
i shed my other antler today. (i shed the first one last week.) i bumped a tree branch on my way through the forest and it fell right off.
i will confess that the falling antler startled me at first. i leaped away out of instinct. but when i came back and sniffed it cautiously, it smelled like me, so i knew it was all right.
my head feels so light now!
(have you ever had antlers? i don’t know if i would recommend them. they really do stick out to the side.)
your friend, sam

I would love to lose my antlers. They are so heavy. Do you have advice, or must one wait until they naturally fall off?
i prefer a nice soft knitted hat sam.
but you look very fine.

or
without the a’s.
Sam here.
Kathy: In my experience, they fall off when it’s time. I wish I knew of a way to make them lighter for you!
Tammy: Thank you! I am sure you look lovely in your soft knitted hat. I like the sound of it.
Do you send the animal post cards in the mail? (Like Fred, constance and Sam) How can I sign up to receive?
Ingrid: That is actually going to be my next postcard series! I’ll let you know when it’s available.
