My wife and I walked the trail near Millersburg this morning. The Killbuck Creek was full to the banks, the deer were inquisitive, and the birds active. I finally saw a Pileated Woodpecker up close. On my mobile I showed my wife what the woodpecker looked like, and sounded like. Within 100 yards of where existed the trail a Pileated Woodpecker crossed the trail right in front of us, and landed on a tree nearby! That was special.
The Joke’s on us! We always are delighted when we see deer on our morning walk. I said I think a deer just crossed the trail in the distance! Upon uploading the photo to my computer and enlarging, I realize it was a pickup truck!! Funny
Shall I cross?
Looks safe enough, I guess I will!
My wife at one of her favorite places for her daily morning walk, the entrance to the “Rails to Trails” trail in Millersburg.
She loves it when on her daily morning walk she sees deer!
Her other favorite place for her daily morning walk is Oak Hill Cemetery near our house. And as you see, she also at times sees deer!
Fawns still with spots!
Buck in Velvet!
Doe ran across ravine, after crossing the road in front of me, had to stop and check me out from a safe distance!
In other words, my taxi customer is heading into the woods, to see if he can find any antlers, that the whitetail bucks have shed! I didn’t run my wipers before taking the photo through the windshield! Can you tell? It does give the scene a different look, doesn’t it!
These white-tail deer sure were skittish, showing their white-tails as they ran off.
There are probably 150+ deer antlers on this entrance to someone’s place. This was West of Flori, Iowa.
This deer was trying to pass me on the trail at a fast speed. I just turned and got this bad photo as he passed.
Here the deer is running off into the woods on my right side.
We were watching these deer on the other side of the Ramsey Cascades Trail, in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, when the deer in the first two photos, came charging down the trail behind me.
