Leaving Austin, headed towards Manor, TX yesterday...these 2 ladies were on the side of the road...low fence, free ranging. There is a bull/stag somewhere! I think they look more like red deer. What say you fellas? Scary thing is, my 17 year old daughter passes that spot twice a day for school.

He's probably thinking about a collision with one. A little bigger than a deer, but I would be more worried about a herd of hogs. Sometimes they will bust across the road at night and it's an obstacle course.

The one on the right is breakfast and the one on the left is second breakfast. Find the stag/bull for elevensies.
