If you are lucky, you may spot Bambi

Deer come down to the hillside behind the farm. Bring binoculars if you have them, and keep your voice down.

Out here, the sky puts on the show

There are no tall buildings and very few lights for miles. Evenings are for watching the colours change, and nights are for the stars.
