Oh Deer, What Can the Matter Be?


Several years ago, I counted the number of deer I saw in one drive home afternoon.  I had finished hiking in Pt. Reyes Park and drove back to Tiburon.  I counted 36 deer on the 30-mile drive back.  And that’s not counting over a hundred Tule Elk I saw at the end of Pierce Road, in the preserve.

A fawn used to hide at the edge of my carport in Mill Valley and most recently I passed a deer while driving on Tiburon Blvd. half way between downtown and my home.

I like them.  Always have.  They possess an elegance, a gracefulness and a skittishness that interests me.  So I am always glad when the camera is at the ready and they are at hand.
