    The deer in Mequon seem to be much braver than those at the lake. These deer didn't seem to mind my moving around just inside the window that the one was just outside of. Up in the north woods, they are timid, and will run off at just the least movement.

    Very pretty animals. They must be foraging wherever they can.

    :D Maybe the deer wondered who was inside, and were maybe hoping for a tidbit of some sort? They are sooo pretty!

    Again great pictures. Those are such beautiful animals. It's ashame that some people feel the need to hunt and kill them. :(

    Great pictures! You're, right...the deer are more bold in urban areas. And they seem to know when hunting season opens up here too, because you never see them!
