Well, after many phone calls, and calling in favors from friends in high places, we finally got someone from Animal Control to come by to see what to do about the doe that had been living in our backyard for the past 7 days and she was great. She helped Avery cut our chain link fence so she could pass through and threw grass all over the area so she would be interested in moving out of our yard. All day long on Saturday, she just stared at us from a corner. Finally, some time during the night she went on to find her family. Meanwhile, all my beautiful flowers have been eaten and the trees and grass on the hillside have been nicely trimmed. She was about 6 months old!
