“Deer eat my flowers, Bobcat eat the deer, I just don’t spend much on flowers.
I live in a pretty inclusive place, all sorts of critters.”
We live in an East Bay (that’s San Francisco Bay) community. it was as hot as 115 last week. Our property is home to as many as a dozen deer. We had a spike buck take refuge on the west deck of our home for three days straight to keep himself sheltered from the unusually high temperatures. When he left in the evening, we put out a large galvanized tub of water for him. Yeah, they do do some damage to our landscaping, but they are still a welcome addition to our neighborhood. So is the flock of wild turkeys who “take the tour” of our neighborhood on a weekly basis. I hope this a$$hole does some time.
Earlier in the spring a little Fawn ran up out of the creek bed and took a really close look at me.
It was really funny, I’m sure I was the first human it had ever seen.
