Those SIS Ranch Girls

A blog inspired by the lives of a family of deer residing on a Texas deer ranch.

Name:
Location: Texas

A city girl living from Las Vegas to Dallas to Chicago, now lives in the country with my husband and daughter - when she's not away at college. I have always "heard" what the animals have to say, now I have a way to creatively feature their thoughts!

Parsley Shows Her Daughter Off


Honey, these are little boys. Ignore them. They think they are smart, handsome, and more. They will try to impress you with their antlers, but they are just little boys. We are the smart ones. Why else would the blog be named for us? We can speak. We can write. They can only oogle!

Parsley

Season 2 Now Underway

Parsley sets the pace this season with the first birth, a young lady yet to be named. She made her debut to adoring fans...note the boys look like paparazzi! Yes, it seems, even in the wild we have deer paparazzi...what can we say? But, boys will be boys!

We all welcome our young prot'eg'e with open arms. The humans only found this young lass, but Parsley is sly, she may have another hidden and tomorrow does bring another day...and another chance to look.

Clean Up!


Clean Up!! Cameras are rolling. YOU always want to look your best for the cameras. They show the pictures to the girls.

Bucks in Training

We may be beginning our very first year, but from what we hear, the humans seem to think we are nothing to sneeze at. I suggest Falstaff better watch out. We are SONS OF PUCK and we stand behind or daddy.

And, we are looking forward to working to earn a name. Numbers are not cool with the girls!

W#11 & W#6

Now, I agree that everyone should watch out for us, however, being SON OF FALSTAFF, I must say that I'm younger than the rest but my antlers are standing with the best. So, perhaps at the end of the day, it will be Falstaff genetics that pave the way!

(By the way, I'm son of Nutmeg too and she'd kill me if I didn't say "Hi Mom! I'm #1")

King of WHAT?!

Puck, king of this, king of that. I have had enough of this 'I'm the king' nonsense. I'm younger, I'm bigger (well, I'm working on it) and I have bigger, meaner antlers underway. Just ask my girls, they'll tell you. Read my reviews:
"That Falstaff has quite a set of antlers. He's my hero!" signed, Licorice

See? I'm a coming and Puck-meister, you better be a watchin'!

Falstaff, #2 working harder to be #1!

Welcoming Summer

It's antler time again and while the humans have been building their winter shelter, I've been growing some rack!!! I think with every hammer and saw blade it made my antlers eek out a bit more. I hope this is the year I look my very, very best. There are some f-i-n-e looking ladies here and I want them to be proud they live in my pen.

Poppy Says Hello


Okay, I have lived a gentle life in East Texas on a wonderful ranch and yet, I never saw talking deer with their own blog! This will be an interesting home I'm sure.

They named me Poppy, a name I actually like very much. I feel like a Poppy, bright and light and pretty. I'm very pretty.

I have moved into The Four Seasons, quite a locale if I say so myself. Lots of fresh, green grass around, lots of trees and at the moment, it seems at least, lots of water. I wonder if it is like this year-round. If so, the humans may need to buy me a quad of water boots! They have 'em. In fact, I spotted a bright red pair yesterday with some sort of animal in white. Pretty chic.

So, I am adjusting, and learning. Didn't know deer could blog; didn't know deer could talk for that matter! I like things around here so far. Now, if I could just get that puffed-up Falstaff to stop asking my sign (whatever that is) I'll be even better.

Miss Poppy

A Poem...

I am a tree,
Not a bee
Nor a flea.
Today, I am a tree
And you cannot see me!

And...in this corner...Falstaff!


Puck? King of the SIS Ranch? Not this season. Just watch. I may be younger, I may have just dropped my antlers last month, but I am ready to take you on, bro!

Step aside...it's time for a new king of the kingdom!

Falstaff, THE SUPER BUCK

In this Corner...Puck


I dropped my antlers just about 2 months ago and as you can see, I'm already well on my way to making another great statement this year. I hate to tell young master Falstaff, but age is in my favor. I'm just a bigger guy...it's a northern thing my son. In a few years you will have something to show for yourself, but don't start looking to outdo me for 2007!

Puck, THE Buck

Wait! Wait!

We're coming! Don't start the first official photo without us!!

Huh?


What? Time to watch Puck & Falstaff? Already?

Get Ready


The tale of the Tape - Season II is about to begin. The Sopranos are back...Entourage is back...it is time for Puck vs. Falstaff to unveil those numerous points and tips, twists and turns as the antler stand-off begins again.

Ladies and Gentlemen....get ready to R-U-M-B-L-E!!!!

Antler Free

I'm antler free and the countdown begins anew! What will 2007 bring on the antler scene. Time to start watching again.

Now, I've been antler free since mid-February, but just now got around to posting. I've had lots to do with all the rain we've had around here, watching the human move the young ones on to new pens...the boys to La Quinta and the girls to The Ritz. And, now the girls have been sent to The Sheraton. Less upscale. Basically, a 2-hoof establishment, but there is work taking place in their highbrow home that required the move. Soon, they'll be moving back to their 4-hoof pad with all the glamour of living behind the humans, who will also be moving in soon. What a change that will be. No more freedom. We will soon be living under the watchful eye of the humans full time. Oh boy, what fun can that be!

Enough for now. Time to enjoy the evening with my ladies!

Puck

A Sloppy Season

SIS Ranch may look like a swamp, but deer do live here. Just occasionally we move to higher ground. Now, our human doesn't really get an option. He wants to supply our snacks...he gets to walk thru the slop!!

Happy swamp walking!

Uh, Excuse Me!

I am not one to really offer much in the way of comments on this deer blog thing, however, first I hear cows, silly little cows, have taken over, then I hear that brat Falstaff indicates the site is his!! Oh deer. First, it is called Those SIS Ranch Girls, and the last I looked that did not include Falstaff or those beastly bovines.

I find all this rather rediculous, and certainly beneath a lady of my stature to take my precious time to correct, however, stupidity must not be ignored from boys or bovines.

Anise

Uh, What?


Did I hear some mo-o-v-e-ment from the peanut gallery over there?

We have no intention of letting you fat, slobbery things take over our blog. We have had plenty to say, however, it is a busy time for Puck and I and without our inspiring thoughts the girls just don't have much to chat about.

So, move back to your pasture where you belong. Falstaff is BACK in TOWN!

Hello, Deer Fans!

Expecting to see deer? Well, guess again city folk. We ain't no stinkin' deer. We are cows. You know, cows, the kind that have been getting all that bad press lately for causing the highest level of pollutants affecting our world's atmosphere. Well, we have decided that since the deer have been rather silent, we'd take over and get a few things straight.

  • We are too cute to be a pollutant.
  • We provide food, shelter and those fabulous Manolo Blahnicks!
  • We keep the grass down so you folks don't get attacked by snakes....or, lions
  • We offer beverages that are great with cookies!!
So, since those fancy, schmancy, SIS Ranch deer have been too busy signing autographs since appearing in some national magazine, to talk to you, we'd take over. From now on you'll be reading about....
THE BOVINE BEAUTIES.

That's right, we have plenty to say and you will soon learn more about the wonderful world of cows. Forget those deer, they got nothin' to say.

Bo-o-o to deer! Moo-ve over Puck!

Signed,
Barb, Bette & Beverly

It's Raining Corn

I stand still and it rains corn all over me! I think I'm big enough that the Humans can see me, yet they seem to always hit me with that corn. Do they think I won't get any? Uh, perhaps that is the issue for my son #14, but not an issue for me. I simply walk up and let my antlers do my talking. Those silly girls just move right out of my way. Hey, I'm big, I'm cool, I know. So, Humans, see me? I'm big. You don't need to throw it at me...I'll make sure and get plenty!

Puck

Watch the...

They say, "keep your eye on the corn", so I'm watching the corn, I'm watching the corn. If the Humans throw it far enough back, I'll get some of my very own and not have to share with the big mammas Nutmeg, Cayenne and Parsley. They take it all. Nutmeg even took the only flower I saw today. I'd like to taste one of those.

So, for the time being, I am just watching the corn, watching the corn.

Little Boy of Puck #14
