England

Today, I received this postcard from England.


It shows fallow deer at New Forest.


I was not familiar with New Forest, so I looked it up...and learned the following.


New Forest is an area of southern England which includes one of the largest remaining tracts of unenclosed pasture land, heath land, and forest.

New Forest was created as a royal forest by William I in about 1079 for the royal hunt, mainly of deer.


Numerous deer live in New Forest.  Fallow deer are the most common, followed by roe deer and red deer.
