Thanks Ann, Jack, Larry, and everybody else who looked and commented.
With y'all's responses, y'all [sic] convinced me that the first photo
is more interesting.
Jack, while I do not remember for sure that I didn't do a manual touch
(I like 60-250's "quick-shift" manual focus override), it
was on AF. And, as many others, I frequently use the technique where
I use the central-point AF, lock the focuse on the subject and reposition.

Appears you may have found it
necessary to go manual focus in
order to avoid the AF locking on
the near tree trunks.
A successful shot!

I prefer the first one, where Bambi is looking at you , by a lot. It's much
more interesting and the framing of his/her
head in the OOF foliage makes it above average, I think. the blown-out
highlights on the very bottom edge could be darkened a bit to
be less distracting, but otherwise it's a lovely shot. "Unusual" is
sometimes overrated.

While I was photographing the vultures, this little Bambi jumped
along onto the road and, scared, went into the woods of the yard that
was not fenced:

Neither of these two shots is unusual. But I cannot figure out which one
I like better. (I'd appreciate suggestions.)
I like the one of it looking between the OOF weeds, it turns the weeds into
a compositional element rather than a distraction.
There are quite a few of such deers wandering in our area (and they keep
eating my roses!), but it is the first time I see a one this small alone.
All comments are welcome.
