Behind my building there is maybe 30ft of wilderness before the next row of houses. Yet in spite of this seemingly minuscule patch of land I routinely ( as I do now ) see herds of deer making their way to and fro. One weekend our parking lot was invaded by wild turkeys. On Friday night I frightened a stag and it galloped into the dark and out of sight. I live 5 mi. from downtown Pittsburgh and at most 2 mi. from East Liberty, how did they get here?!?
