Calvary Wildlife
 

To my amazement, I found that Calvary had a herd of seven deer. A caretaker told me that in the winter people come in every day and feed the deer bread and cookies. He said that they occasionally jump over a fence but they come back right away.

 

Calvary also has a flock of Canadian geese but I don't know if they stay all year. At this latitude these birds are pests that eat the food of native species and poop a pound a day per bird.
