Deer

Hi,
I was driving into work one day last week and had to stop the car cos not only did 1 deer, not 2 but 3 deer jump out on the road crossed in front of me and jumped over the other ditch. I looked into the field passing and there was a 4th, they were gorgeous!!!

OP, do you not see deer much? Regular occurence around here. What breed were they? Fallow?

tishiewishie

No wouldn't see much deer, have seen the odd 1 or 2 over the years but never 4 like this. Not a clue what breed they were, sorry.

Just a few out the back of the homeplace, literally a stone throw away

usually get better, the sister wanted to see them that day, so when i called out to the home place for her, she was geared up with her illuminous wellies and pink jacket:rolleyes::D.

I thought they were colourblind?

4-5 jumped out in front of me on the road about a year ago at Dardistown House near Drogheda. Then a couple of weeks ago as I was approaching the M1 toll at Drogheda heading south bound, I could see a stag and 3-4 does on in the river to the east. Would have made for a lovely photo as the rising sun caught them in the water lovely.

I presume they were 'escapees'.

Not sure what breed they were... very big though.

yea, hence in america when out walkin or hunting you have to wear the bright orange for safety. But i would presume they would be alot brighter on the eye than normal boots:) they have great hearing though. And wil often hear ya before they see ya.
