    Nice one Calomaar! I saw 13 deer just outside my back yard this morning. A nice sight to see but I don't want them getting any closer to my gardens!

    Very stately buck! I had to stop for a doe with two young crossing the road. We have mule deer mostly around here. And elk!

    Handsome deer. The last ones I saw were too close - I hit one with my Jeep. Two weeks later and I just got it back from the collision shop.
