As you go down Burnt Boat road toward Pioneer Park, you’ll see a street heading north to a hill overlooking River Road. It’s a new housing development that’s been off to a bit of a slow start but is seeing more development lately, including new roads being paved. To the east of this road is a wide expanse of untouched land in a wide, sloping valley.
That’s where I spotted this doe tonight. This area of grassland extends all the way back over to Divide Avenue where it turns into Tyler Parkway, by the fire station. It’s a prime hideout for deer during the day as well as at dusk, when I saw this one.
