This deer was watching us pull onto our street as we came home from running errands this afternoon. I hopped out and tried to get as close as I could before she turned tail and hopped into the woods. Since this photo was taken using full zoom I obviously didn't make it very far- probably about fifty yards or so.
Did you know that deer are the deadliest animals in America? This is true but like many statistics it is misleading. The vast majority of deer-related deaths result from car crashes. I once hit a deer with my Ford Escort. I'm just sayin'...the deer won.
