The white-tailed deer is the most common of all of North America’s large mammals. It is also the most widely distributed. A deer's home range is usually less the a square mile. Deer collect in family groups of a mother and her fawns. When a doe has no fawns, she is usually solitary. Male bucks may live in groups consisting of three or four individuals, except in mating season, when they are solitary. White-tailed deer mate in November and the female has one to three fawns after about six months after mating.

Turdus ignobilis is a widely distributed thrush species throughout northern South America and the Amazon, inhabiting a diverse set of habitats ranging from floodplain forests, white sand “campinas”, to highland forests (Andes and Tepuis). There are currently six known subspecies of T. ignobilis, which vary extensively phenotypically and also ecologically.

The apartment complex at which I live... my building is over my left shoulder (as I shot this).
Apartment living can be rather expensive, but it has been a real treat for the last eleven years to not: A) shovel snow or 2) mow the lawn!

Photo: LMcRae/NPWS - NPWS aerial spot-spray control of bitou bush on steep sections of Coffs Coast Regional Park to protect this significant natural landscape.
Aerial spraying supports other control techniques including hand removal, cut-and-paint, ground-based spraying and planting of native species.
The areas to be affected by the program are Macauleys Headland, Diggers Head, Charlesworth forest, White Bluff, Woolgoolga Headland, Darkum Rocks, Mullaway Headland, Oceanview Headland and Arrawarra Headland within Coffs Coast Regional Park.
Aerial spraying of bitou bush infestations with very low rates of glyphosate or metsulfuron methyl in winter can control the weed whilst not affecting hundreds of native species, leaving them to grow and gradually replace it.
