Default RE: Deer looking up?

ORIGINAL: GMMAT

Happened to me yesterday. A doe caught my scent on the ground and looked up in the tree where I was at.
I can see this.....OR...she was putting her nose in the air to try to wind you. If she does this....she's looking up by default.

I know the difference from when they are scent checking and scanning the trees.
Teach me, then. I'm all ears!

Well when they are scent checking they are putting their nose as high in the air as possible as if they were trying to reach for an apple above their head. When they spot your scan the trees they look directly at you and wonder what that blob is. I've figured GMMAT you've spent enough time in the woods you could tell the difference.
