I have lived in the UK for most of my life, but when young I definitely had wanderlust and even ended up living in South Africa for several years which was a wonderful experience. I now look forward to a long and leisurely retirement doing what I like most - gardening, photography, walking and travelling.

TRAVEL WORDS 
As a teenager, I lived in Ham, only a stone’s throw from Richmond Park. Thanks for the memories!
The perfect sighting! And I worked close by, once upon a time.
The deer are a great attraction in that park. Antony goes there to photograph them quite often.
Best wishes, Pete. x
A fine specimen!
Yes. And it looked right at me for a split second!
Ah, over a couple of decades since I visited, this is what I saw: https://suejudd.com/2020/10/27/the-wild-kind/
A great photo. My daughter (and her childminder kids) were ambushed in Bushy Park by an amorous stag – she said it was very scary!
It would be….
Do authorities feed the deer, or is there enough vegetation for them to survive on their own?
Well there is a sign asking the public not to take the horse chestnuts as apparently the deer eat them!
beautiful picture!
