Buck Takes a Stroll Up the Street

Looking classic on the neighbor’s retaining wall.

We heard some rustling out the side window, then something crashing through the yard made all the cats jump up and either look out the window or run in the other direction. I ran out the front door thinking it might be a groundhog or two, and a buck came jumping out of the side yard, past the porch and out to the street! I ran inside to get my camera and stalked him until he ran back to the green space between the yards and headed up the hill. We haven’t seen the deer down here since March. The area they were feeding in really wasn’t big enough to support two or three, and their little herd had grown to six. There are a couple of overgrown hillsides they can easily browse a few streets away, and that seems to be where they went.
