They look in great shape...
They DO look good, lots of fat on them yet. Thanks 'J' for posting the pics !!
Nice to see.... Hopefully the deer up north are fairing just as well..
They look great for sure. Don’t seem to be too much snow.
that part of the field got blown clear during the high winds. We just got another 30 cm of light snow the last 2 days. This field always has sections where the snow blows away.Quote:

A buddy told me his wife saw 17 this morning in one field on her way from Hanover to Mildmay.
Saw a herd had to be close to 80-100 in the field.
Had a chance for a short trip in Michigan 2 days ago.On 10 km stretch of a side road and about 15 km of Highway i saw about 150 deer.Somewhere between Port Huron and Flint.
I know this does not help.........but boy o boy if they have plenty of deer.
It is quite the eye opener , the number of deer that you see driving along I- 69 in Michigan.
I guess they don't have the same Hunter pressure we have here that have driven our Deer to be nocturnal..HaHa....
In Michigan ? Not sure about that !Quote:

The hunting pressure seems enormous.Yet their deer seems a whole lot less skittish then"ours".
On two occasions i slowed,turned,came back to enjoy the view-the herd was 50-70 yards from me,and would barely bother with my staring at them from a stopped vehicle.
MikePal-i guess Your HaHa ending says what you meant.........
Yes sarcasm is a dying art on this forum :)Quote:

Our daughter was over last night and she said that while visiting a friend on Fri. p.m. they counted approximately 70, yes 70 deer in a field across from her friends place this was due east of Woodstock several miles.
Me too... Friday. late afternoon early evening seen a ton of deer..... Never seen so many in such a short period of time.... Maybe seen 50-60 in about a half dozen fields.... Nice to see so many making it through the winter. Mind you, besides the cold, snow depth was never a concern my way...Quote:

More recent pictures of “my herd”. Nice and fat.

They almost look like cattle beasts, may have to go on a diet before the hunt!!!!!
Check out my other post for recent daylight photos taken from my front porch.
You don’t want to show me too much, I just live up the road from you!!LOL
