pinellas county parks: Bambi Spotted At Brooker Creek Preserve Yesterday! - 01/01/13 09:03 PM
Yes, it is true, Bambi was spotted at Brooker Creek Preserve just east of Tarpon Springs Florida yesterday.

Ronnie and I were out for a walk in this magnificent 8700 acre park and I spotted a beautiful deer. It could not have been more beautiful and this lovely creature actually did not sprint off for deeper coverage, instead it patiently stood there and let me take photograph after photograph.

Then it turned, slowly walked away, turned back again and then continued on it's journey of foraging for breakfast.
Brooker Creek Park is always a delight and we were not … (4 comments)
