We've had alot of snow on the ground around here for the entire winter, deer were eating just about anything. Recently while coyote hunting I would drive by this spot where the farmer kept his hay bales. Three days in a row this deer would be on top of the bales eating and the other 2 would be hollowing out the center of the bales! The guy on top there is actually kinda hiding, so he thinks, when I first would come around the corner he would be standing directly on top!

I tracked a doe and 2 fawns last winter and came across a spot where one deer stood on it's hind legs and put it's front feet up on a fallen tree to balance while it ate buds off of some lower hanging limbs. I also was tracking one that stood up out of it's bed and jumped about 6' sideways to try to get me to lose it's track.

BHF, that's a neat photo and at the same time, sad. Thanks for sharing.
I've seen them doing so many things but the only one that pops up was an 11 pt and another buck that were harrassing and chasing gobblers around some trees. The gobblers got my attention until I saw the 11pt. (9 with two kickers). I started calling and rattling and arrowed the buck.

Last fall I was up in my stand and I heard something from behind me. As I looked it was a big ole doe that was tracking my path up a small ditch I had walked in on. She knew something was up. When she walked past my tree about 10 yards the angle was not right so I let out a very light "Baaaab" before she got into the thick brush. As I did, she instantly jumped about 3 feet in the air and went about 10 feet forward without touching the ground. I was laughing so hard I could not pull back my bow.
