2010-02-25 18:33:29 ET About a month ago during one of the many snow storms we've had this winter, a deer was struck by a vehicle during the night in front of the property. I was about 80' N. of the drive way for a few days till a snow plow knocked or dragged it 50' south toward the drive. Then another plow knocked it up into the yard where it has become the most active dead deer I have ever observed. It has emerged from the snow and moved about the yard half a dozen times. Always at night and often surrounded by canine footprints. The prints seem too large to be coyote, one morning about 3 weeks ago they were deer prints. The past two or three days it has recieved much attention from a pair of large Red Shouldered hawks. It seems quite popular with the local scavenger set. |
