It’s called getting meat that was not raised in a stock-yard, and meat that has a carbon-neutral impact on the earth. Something that can’t be said of any of the animals we typically get meat from currently – especially cows. Give me a free-range deer over a cruelly treated stockyard animal any day of the week.
Well, gee. I was hoping to see a fine buck or doe about to become BBQ.
Great photographs anyways… I took a few myself. Though, given the option, they would be stocking my larder:

Hopefully you’ll get to see me in September with my first (dead) deer…

I have photos like that but I doubt that they’d go over well here. 😉
Here is the party in my backyard (literally) two days ago…

XD XD The deer that live in our backyard have taken up residence on the front porch these days. The boys have gotten very cautious about taking the trash out after dark. It is not at all uncommon to hear the front door open, hear a high pitched, ‘little girl’ scream, hear the front door slam and then hafta threaten to wash boys mouths out with soap if I ever hear those words come out their mouths ever again… *poor twinners* I guess it can be rather startling to come within kissing distance of 8 or so Mule deer huddling on the doorstep 😀

Awesome!
I take shots of the deer in Faculty Hollow behind my university campus while I’m away at school, but unfortunately I’m home for reading week right now and don’t have my photos on my laptop. I’ll have to remember to post them when I get back to my desktop. It keeps me sharp for the real deer season in November, when I trade my Canon for a cannon. Living in a northern Ontario town I was taught to hunt when I was little, and I got my first (and so far only) deer when I was 16
I got the bejeesus scared out of me by mule deer this evening. The resident herd snuck up on me without a sound, and when I turned around, I suddenly had 20 curious mule deer checking me out.

Great pics Jen! 😀
😀 I went deer hunting again today after work and took like a gazilian pictures, Well 233 pics to be exact. I’m going through them now.
I’m loading the best ones then will post them here.🙂 You guys want to see lots of them?
And I have a surprize but I’ll have to wait for that one.twindragonsmum wrote:hear a high pitched, ‘little girl’ scream,
twindragonsmum 😀Don’t let the twins hear you say that….lol 😀

I’m looking forward to seing them. 🙂setsunawolf and dark_zorse, I told these deers about you guys wanting deer season and their reaction follow after the first two pictures
😛 😛 XD XD When I shot these I knew they were ment for you two. 😀
Here are more pics…sorry I took lots of them. 😳
One deer had a request to look larger than the others, so I shot him with the camera at ground level, and called him my “larger then life deer”. I thought it made a cool picture. 😕
Are they really fearless or do you just have an uber telephoto lens, BDW?! The deer here are no where near so brave.

Too true, but that’s the game we play in society; things that should be acceptable are not always so. I realize that being a responsible hunter often means showing a courteous face to the public eye, and many people would be bothered to see a photo of a deceased animal. While I don’t agree (and you know my rant on that.. people knowing where their food comes from), I want to respect that it’s not something that everyone wants to see… if nothing else than to try and keep hunting from having a bad name.
If you want the photos I can email them. 😉Volunteer mod- I'm here to help! Email me for the best response: nambroth at gmail.com

Nope no telephoto lens just my Canon S5 IS .
They are wild but hungry….not as much as last year but still. That is why they get a little closer around this time of year.
You won’t see that come late spring , summer or fall.There is noting wrong with hunting for food.
I do know a few hunters here that do so just for fun and then get’s rid of the animal…Now that is plain wrong!!! 😡
I did come upon a deer last year that had been shot and took pics of it ….I took them just in case they could be of use to someone…either the paper since they are trying to fight this type of hunting or someone else. When I went back a few days later the wolves had gotten to it so in a way it was not a complete waste but it’s still wrong for an animal to die just for the fun of others. Makes me sick! :puke:
The deer was shot in the Protective area (Gatineau Parc) where it is not permited to hunt there.Now for some positive stuff….
lots of pics so please give it time to load…I promisse you wont be dissapointed! :yes:
This particular deer was scaring me since he kept on slipping at the edge of a steep cliff that drop to a deep pool in order to get to some grassy areas for him to feed. 😮
Tomorrow night I will put the videos on here for you to see. 😉Those are very pretty pictures. Very nice. I’m pretty sure the deer around here are suicidal. They will look right at you when you are driving down a back road and insist on running out in front of you. It’s a shame.
My most wanted list: Peacock kitty wizard, carnelian mouse wizard, copper patina frog wizard, autumn leaf poads, pumpkin spice kitties

Thank you. 🙂
It’s the same here….last winter I just missed a deer that was getting out of the ditch. She backed right back in when she saw me.
So I continued on that straight stretch of road than just when I was about to turn on another road to my right, I stopped and looked in the rear view mirror and saw a car that was comming closer to the area where the deer was. I kept on telling myself: “Please don’t cross” several times but for some reason I wanted to turn around and get there as fast as I could….I just had a bad feeling!
WELL I SHOULD HAVE WENT THERE! I saw the deer get out of his hiding place just at the same moment the car was there, and she got HIT!
I turned the car arround drove to the scene and calm the older man, then went to check on the deer. Her bones from her legs were sticking out and were bend in an awful way. I bend down and put my hand at the front of her mouth to see if she was breathing…she wasn’t…in a way I was releived but sad that I hadn’t saved her.
The thing is that I KNEW! I KNEW this would happen and I just sat there waiting….I still hold myself responcible for this. 🙄Ok I didn’t have the intention for this reply to be so long…sorry. 😳
That is so sad….
It reminds me when (back in the summer) I was driving down a back road and I came around this sharp turn and almost ran over a box turtle….luckily I just missed him. I think we scared each other. But I pulled into a drive way to go back and help him cross the road and just when I get there this fool in a big pick up truck comes barreling down the road and ran him right over.
I was heartbroken. Had I just stopped in the first place instead of turning around in the nearest drive way I could have saved him. 🙄
I think I was more mad at the dude in the truck than myself though.My most wanted list: Peacock kitty wizard, carnelian mouse wizard, copper patina frog wizard, autumn leaf poads, pumpkin spice kitties
