Monrovia Deer

The local wildlife includes some critters not quite as dangerous as the coyotes, bobcats, and bears. This shot was captured while taking a quiet afternoon drive around the upper edge of town over the weekend. Click through the photo, then click the "map" link for the approximate location.

As the photo's caption says: "Count the deer. Check again."

It is pretty clear that the local deer really aren't at all worried about people or cars. These gals hardly even twitched when I rolled to a stop and lowered the window. This grassy hillside is perfect fodder for them, and I am sure that the homeowners on the street really prefer them in the grass to their flower beds.
