Roger that. You know, they are sneaky. We have mule deer that wander down in winter (live at the edge of city limits) and I cannot tell you how many dozens of times they have terrified me in the wee hours. They are practically domesticated, but very powerful creatures that will just come face to face with you out in the middle of the road!

I know what you mean! I once accidentally cornered a buck climbing up some stone stairs of all places and my heart was hammering as I backed away to give him some space.

How scary! Heart in throat. In those moments....
