So very sad
We have a small herd of deer that we enjoy watching in our yard every day. They seem to be such gentle creatures; it’s a shame that they have those stupid ticks that carry lyme disease! This morning I went out to run errands and found a dead deer alongside the road just a couple of houses from our house. A sick feeling hit me as I realized that poor thing was probably one of “our” deer. I always feel so bad for any animal that I see lying beside the road, but it is much worse when you’ve started to feel like it is ‘one of ours.” I am now anxious to see the herd again later today, to take a head count.
