There is always at least 25 to 30 around here all day.

I like the word for them... a "convocation"

... much more intriguing that a "murder" of crows
... but not as poetic as a "charm" of hummingbirds

Alaska's the home where the Buffalo roam.

Quote:

Two wood bison bulls weighing upward of 2,000 pounds move toward higher ground at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center on Sunday, March 22, 2015, in Portage, Alaska. The Alaska Department of Fish and Game on Sunday moved the first wood bison to a staging area in Shageluk, Alaska, for reintroduction in a few week to their native Alaska grazing grounds. Wood bison, which are larger than plains bison native found in Lower 48 states, disappeared from U.S. soil more than a century ago.

Gravdigr · 03-29-2015, 01:53 PM

That's a lot of cheeseburgers.

BigV · 03-30-2015, 11:44 AM

That's a lot of bull.

The housing estate deer

Deer go in search of food in the gardens of an Essex housing estate as the residents sleep.

The herd of Fallow Deer was photographed wandering the streets and grazing on lawns from around 11pm to 4am, before returning to nearby woods.

That's just NE of London and the deer have probably come from Epping Forest which is described as 'London's largest open space'.

Interesting, I think of deer(whitetail) as browsers and elk as grazers, but Fallow Deer swing both ways.

I think of them both as steak.

And the occasional casserole, or, meat loaf.

xoxoxoBruce · 03-31-2015, 03:36 PM

Some think of you as steak.

I'm always thankful that, as I step out of GCOne on the riverbank at night, I don't have to worry about bears, cougars (well, pumas, anyway

), crocogators, and the like.

Around here, the only thing you need to worry about is be sure to kick some dirt/gravel around when you get out of the car at night. Runs off those pesky cotton-headed-rattle-moccasins.

Walking along the riverbank at night, if you smell cucumbers, stop, and go back the way you came, slowly, and in the same footsteps. Copperheads smell like cucumbers, and they don't run away.
