Deer are a familiar sight as you drive through the edges of Nanaimo's residential area. The deer in this area were treating the homeowners to a free trim job on their trees and bushes...not sure how much they appreciated it, but the deer were enjoying themselves! Nanaimo deer story: As residents of Departure Bay and the Hammond Bay Rd. area know, deer sightings are not unusual. A new neighbor to the area placed a call to city hall office to request the removal of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason: "Too many deer are being hit by cars out here! I don't think this is a good place for them to be crossing anymore." Another 'true' Nanaimo story.....honest! :-) ~ Nanaimo-info-blog.com
