Well, hello there deer!
What are you doing in the middle of my lane
on the TransCanada Highway?
Deer belong in forests.
Get off the asphalt
before you die.

A little surprise on my way to work this morning: a large mule deer (I think) right behind the school where I work. He headed into the trees of the river valley after I stopped for him to carry on. Such is life in Canada!

It’s that time of year! At least it wasn’t a moose, they just stand there and dare you to run them down.
I not sure it’s so much that they’re daring you, as they can’t remember what they’re supposed to do if they see a car…
At least the story has a happy ending! Not all are so lucky.
That’s true.
I had an unfortunate experience with a raccoon that caused a lot of damage to Sheila the Bug!
I’m sorry for Sheila and the raccoon! I’m originally from Texas and deer are a constant peril. And armadillo, and possums, and skunks…LOL. But deer are the most threatening.
It was a BIG deer, too. Not a dainty little thing. This one wanted to be an elk.
LOL. Good goal I suppose! Glad all parties are ok.
We live to share the joyous tidings. 😉

Hahahaha marvellous!!
Thanks
Get off the asphalt ( smile)
😉
The does run around everywhere at will in B.C. I had to “thread the needle” through a herd of them one and still one managed to jump into the left front fender of my car!
Yeah. They’re ubiquitous. Good eating, though. 😉
*Caotain Barbosa voice* AGREED! 🙂
😉
in
canada
it’s always
a
wild life
lol
Excellent, Geo! 🙂
They raise your auto insurance rate by over 20%. Do not fit well in the front seat.
Not if they hit you. Then it’s no fault…
I filed my raccoon report with the phrase “suicidal raccoon leapt out in front of my car” which was true enough. 😉
Have you ever eaten coon? It does not taste like chicken.
It is getting warn here now. It will be 95 in a couple of days.
I have not had coon. Are you suggesting I should have pulled off the road, and bagged the beast for dinner? (Expensive meal, I assure you). 😉 I’ve had frog, deer, reindeer, rabbit, bear, but never raccoon.
I could imagine the deer’s potential response:
Woah! Hello there human!
What’s your highway doing in the middle of my walk
through the wilderness?
Deer belong in forests.
Get this asphalt out from under me
before I die.
^-^
Perhaps. Though he was in town, so not exactly wilderness (though a few kilometers, and that would not be inaccurate) 😉
This was so cute!!!!!
Thanks
I like how you observe nature – the other components of it, not just us!
It’s hard not to observe it, living where I do. 🙂
