Two Mule Deer seen when three of us were driving the backroads SW of Nanton on 30 December 2012. The small group of three of us were taking part in the annual Audubon Christmas Bird Count for Nanton, and our quadrant was the SW part of the huge circle around this town, which is S of Calgary. I love this area of rolling hills!

"In the Canada 2011 Census, the Town of Nanton had a population of 2,132 living in 905 of its 957 total dwellings .... Nanton is known primarily for three distinct features. The first being its aviation museum - the Bomber Command Museum of Canada (also known as the Nanton Lancaster Society Air Museum) situated adjacent to Highway 533. Second being its high number of antique shops, and third being its two fully restored grain elevators on north-bound Highway 2." From Wikipedia.
