Last night I saw not one, but two deer! One was a fawn that stepped up to the edge of the road as I approached. I talked to her and asked her kindly to wait for me to pass, and she turned around and went back into the woods Later on a large beautiful buck bounded across the road in front of me! I was far enough away that I was able to enjoy watching him.

Seems that right now all I see are deer, at least on the bike. When hiking last weekend I saw several salamanders peeking out from under a rock as I crossed a stream on a mountain bike trail. They probably thought I couldn't see them
