Do I have deer?

I just bought my house a couple of months ago. I don't know if I have deer - haven't seen any - but I live in a suburban area with a big park nearby. I did find lots of droppings at the end of my yard. (they are little and round - say a little smaller than the size of acorn - but there are masses of them). There are also 3 decimated bushes nearby - but I don't know if that is due to disease or what since I'm new to the house. Does this mean I have deer?

It sounds like deer. Most come through at night.

Here is a link that might be useful: deer droppings

yup- and I'm finding them wandering deeper and deeper into the burbs looking for a quiet spot...

watched one bring traffic to a screeching halt on the levittown parkway, in the middle of a township that's been pretty much paved over since before I was born...

poor thing wasn't happy to be there, but didn't know how to find its way out of the neighborhood...

took a good 10 minutes to herd it off to the side of the road.
