Returning to the condo after Boneyard Beach, we met the nightly herd of neighborhood deer.
.

.
They wander the area at will, not the least bit scared of cars or people.
.
.
Southern deer are much smaller than the ones we’re used to seeing up north.
To me these are basically large dogs.
.

.
We wondered where they slept in this area… it’s a beach after all, crowded with houses and very little undeveloped woods.
Did I mention we had dolphins in front of our resort twice a day? Two hours before high tide and two hours before low. They follow and drive the fish and we loved seeing them frolic.
Of course every time I tried to film them they stopped. Pay close attention here and you’ll see one break the surface.

And speaking of sea creatures, Edisto Island is all about the turtles.
.

.
Brightly painted and prominently displayed.
.

.
Some of them were quite creative.
.

.
On the main drag?
.

.
The sand seemed to be gaining ground.
.

.
And every time we drove by this rental house? We laughed.
.

.
Oops. Major parking dimension miscalculation there.

Another balcony selfie, slightly squinty as I was looking into the sun.

Those deer do not seem shy at all!

Great photos. I love the turtles. Seeing you posing in front of a window, I can’t help but wonder if it’s being replaced – sorry. I hope you have a great weekend.

Every town should have painted animals. Custer, SD had bison. We’ve got cows. Turtles seem very apropos in the coastal South.

You’d think we’d have lobsters, but no.
