Wild Deer in High Park Who'd Thought

Wild Deer in High Park Who'd Thought, originally uploaded by gashphoto.

I would have never thought I would see the sight. I was walking through High Park in Toronto Ontario Canada looking at the bushes and what did I see but two deer. It was a dark day and these deer where under the buses feeding. All in all it was a magical moment for me as we gazed into each others eyes and time seem to stand still. I had been told there is supposed to be deer in High Park but I nobody I know has ever seen any so I was thrilled.

I went to the Colonel Samuel Smith First Birding Festival On Saturday and saw some lovely raptor's from the University of Guelph including this lovely kestrel. Not that I wanted to see these lovely animals harrased but they did not like dogs and I was glad to see that some people might have got the news that wild birds and dogs do not mix. Spent most of my time looking at this lovely fellow and watching the turkey vulture spreads it wing around the young lady that was holding him so they looked like they were on a date
