White-tailed deer

The White-tailed deer is a beautiful herbivore.  I always enjoy seeing them in the yard, woods, and along the sides of the road (have to careful not to hit one). This deer is popular with hunters both for it's antlers and meat (which is quite tasty). Sadly, hunting clubs are taking over a lot of the wild areas in the state. Even if that land is public land, once a hunting club leases it, the land is off limits to people who aren't members of the hunting club even if they aren't hunters. 

There have been two or three deer around the house the entire time I've lived here (10 years).   I see them a couple of times a year in the back yard and I've seen one in the front yard twice. 

Seeing the deer is always a surprise.  Seeing the deer and having a camera handy is a Magick all it's own.
