An Interaction with Deer - A Morning Walk

avatar

I was out for a morning walk in one of the subdivisions near where I live. It was a beautiful morning and I was walking the brick path that winds through the houses when I ran into a couple youngsters resting on the grass.

Mom was close by grazing away. From the looks of her flanks she is a little behind on her calorie intake.

One of the kids quickly got up and joined mom. He looked back at his sibling to see if he would also join them, then he stared at me to try and ascertain my intentions. 😀


Eventually the family was reunited and went on with their grazing with little concern for me.


I then returned to my walk and continued my enjoyment of the beautiful day.

So these dudes could graze close to where people are? Interesting!

Some of them will come right up to your door if there is something good enough to eat. 😀

You actually have to put a very high fence for your garden as they can jump very high over normal fences. They can be in your yard and particularly dangerous on the road. I hit the bigger cousin and Elk once at night in the winter with a car. I got lucky only some minor damage and a missing mirror.

Well, I think that's because they don't get attacked or harmed by people that's why they do come closer to where people are.

Yes true. During hunting season they even come down into town because they are safer there.

Such adorable photos, the neighborhood looks fantastic. Those deers are not afraid of people? I have heard that deers can be friendly with humans too if humans treat them well.

The town deer are a lot more tolerant of people. You can get pretty close to them but most will still move away from you. I think the humans and their homes have just become a part of their environment that they have to deal with. 😀
