On a ride at dusk today I had a strange encounter.I passed 2 doe and their young crossing the road.When they spotted me they scattered into the woods.Couple of minutes later 3 bucks were coming out of the woods trying to cross.They stopped looked at me and slowly returned to the forest.I go around a curve and a much larger buck is standing in the middle of the road.He isn't moving.Staring right at me.He lowers his head.WHAT! Now I'm thinking this crazy buck is going to charge me.I yelled at him trying to sound like Fonzi but it came out like a little girls voice.Ive been loosing my voice the past few days.It worked and he retreated very slowly.

We have a lot of deer for a populated area.There is no hunting around here.The deer seem to be getting used to life near people and cars.
