On Miyajima Island in Hiroshima, Japan, there are beautiful wild sika deer. I had the opportunity to see these adorable little deer in person during a visit to the island. It was fun to watch this deer snack on the washed-up vegetation along the beach. The deer's view of the mountains and Hiroshima Bay, coupled with the attention from tourists, sure makes this deer's life seem pretty easy-going, just like its demeanor.
