Oh Deer


The community where I live, Tampa Palms, backs up to thousands of undisturbed acres. From an aerial view, we live directly behind the Lettuce Lake park property. It is also near the Hillsborough river. So, it is not that unusual to see some different kinds of wildlife than other parts of Tampa.


Yesterday, I saw two beautiful deer, just around the corner from my house. They were just hanging out eating breakfast (the neighbors lawn).


We also see wild turkeys, otters, an occasional bobcat, etc. I have also seen wild pigs, but not for a while. The pigs had become such a nuisance, that they had to hire 'hunters' to shoot them with a bow and arrow.
