 This Morning
What an awesome way to start the day.  I live in an apartment building and behind it is a stream with a little bridge that leads to a park.  Every morning before work I take my dog, Digger, for a walk in the park.  There are beavers in the stream and they love to take out some of the trees on the sides of the stream.  This morning as I was crossing the bridge I heard a rustle in the leaves.  Thinking it was a beaver I peered over the bridge to have a look see.  There just below me was a deer.  I've never been so close to one before.  She was so started she started to climb up the hill then just stood and watched me.  After a few seconds I carried on my way and her eyes didn't leave me.  I was worried she'd continue up the hill and head out into the street.  On my way back I was looking for her but she was no where to be seen.  It was then I noticed a link fence on that side of the bridge so I was abit at ease.  I do so hope she followed the stream and made it to the conservation area.  As I was telling my boss about it he's telling me about a buck that was in the middle of the city heading towards the newspaper's front doors.  Instead he detoured and not 10 min. later he said it was on the radio that the poor thing got hit by a car and was suffering.  I hope the cops or someone got there fast enough to put the poor thing out of his misery. 

I still smile each time I think of the one I saw.  I sure wish I had my camera with me.  It made my day!!!

Hi there SimplyMe,
I know this thread was started back in 09 but felt I had
to reply. I love animals too and so envy those who are
lucky enough to live close to our wildlife creatures.

So sad about that poor buck and hope the other deer you
saw made it to safety.

Take your camera next time ! lol

Apology

I tried to give you another star but instead of mine being
added it seems one was taken OFF from those you already had !!!

So sorry about this, can't figure out what I did wrong.

I've put a post on the help section at the forum to see if
anyone can help.

I'm new to blogging and still learning how things are done.

So sorry SimplyMe. I'll find a post of yours that doesn't have
any stars yet and see if I can put a couple on for you to make up.

Again - so sorry.
