Default RE: Do deer sleep?

One time about ten years ago I was walking in the woods getting ready to leave when in the distance I seen some does coming right in my direction. They got within about forty yards and then grazed some acorns and then laid down. They sat for a while with there heads up just looking around for about ten minuets. Then they both relaxed there heads and laid them down kinda curled up pointing at the back leg. They would only keep there heads down for a few minuets and then perk up, look around and slowly relax and lay there head back down. They did this for about a half hour until I was done crawling to twenty yards and tried to stand up for a shot! LOL! It was fun watching them.
