Lots of deer here too. It's hard to not go anywhere and not see one or more.
Our winters of late have been relatively mild and snow free so they survive very well.
Just last week I was riding through a heavily populated area just on the edge of town and there stood a doe and two fawns as I came around a mild curve in the street.
It was a residential city street so I was only going less than 30 mph. The doe wasn't in any hurry to get off the street, but did walk into the back yard of a resident and the fawns followed.
This was nowhere near a forest and it was very surprising how or why she was in that residential area and all the streets and traffic hazards she had to negotiate to get where I saw her.
