RE: NY'ers, seeing many deer out now?
Last week was peek in CNY I'd say for seeing deer. The hilltops only were exposed - and it seemed ever exposed spot had 20-30 deer on my way home from work.
Last thursday night - I counted well over 70 in one group - and saw several 20-30 groups. I have a 11 mile ride home from work. (7F and 7J)
This week many fields are exposed now - and they seem more split up ( 5 here - 10 there, etc). - Makes it tough to judge how many total are around.
