Deer + Flowers

Posted on by Patrick

I went for a bike ride last night. I left the house about 8, got in around 9, and along the way I saw some deer graz­ing along­side the trail.

…and some flow­ers, too. Includ­ing, final­ly, some lilacs.

On tonight’s bike ride, I found half a dozen deer graz­ing in the mead­ow west of 34th Street. They looked like they could use the food.
