Too cool to see.The cars and a few dogs gave them the jitters,but other than that I think they have hung around town a few times before.Some guys on here from around Ladysmith will know the location,Bel-Aire Street and Dogwood,right at the Old police station.I think I will plant some alfafa in my lower yard and set up a tree stand.Enjoy!

Reminds me of when I had a young bull moose frantically running down my street a few years ago, at first I thought I was seeing things. Only pic I got was very poor, but same idea, I'm in the center of a residential area, not an interface area at all.

I used too live in the old house across that intersection in the bottom pic . Dad lost it to the bank though . Nice neighberhood . Is there still a big ravine behind that neighberhood ? If its the same place {and I'm pretty sure it is } I spent most of my childhood "hunting " cougers in that ravine . I wander if thats were the deer came from. Its been along time since i was over there , so forgive me if I'm off my bearings.
Neighberhood looks nicer than when I left fifteen years ago.

They are nice to see, but If they start staying in town , they will become a big problem.
Over here in the south eastern part of B. C. we have nothing but problems with the mulies in town, 24/7.
Some of the towns and cities are looking at ways to get them out of town- city limits, so far nobody has come close to deciding what to do!

Saw a buck about the same size wondering around near the north end of the Iron Workers bridge this morning.
