14. We live just off Franklin Street in Chapel Hill, NC

Although we are right in town, you'd think we were out in the woods.

The deer have actually become quite a problem. When we first moved here 15 years ago, we'd see
one or two occasionally. I walk my rescue dog, Snowy, every morning, and it's now routine for us
to see deer almost every morning. We've seen as many as 13 at a time. But it's still somewhat
rare to see them during the day. The Summer Camouflage photo was taken around noon
one day when I was returning from taking Snowy for her mid-day walk.

I lived near Franklin Street in the 1970s, never saw any deer or heard about any sightings Jim Lane Sep 2015 #25
Apparently, it's a result of development, deer losing habitat, and no population control. mnhtnbb Sep 2015 #26
