Short Track
WKR
I have big bay windows in my house. The deer can certainly see in my windows, and they know when I'm watching them. They watch me too. They stomp their feet, snort, bob their heads. All kinds of things to scare me off.
Very fascinating creatures. They certainly learn danger, they know when I stop my truck, it's time to run. If I drive by slowly, they are less concerned, but still watch me.
I have tried countless times to stalk deer on my lawn. They know I am there immediately. No matter how slowly I walk, or move behind trees, they know I'm there.
So more recently, I started talking to them. They know I'm there, so why not. Talking to them doesn't seem to bother them, or make them more calm. I still can't get too close, or they snort & bolt away.
Certainly became a hobby to interact with the deer. Not sure I could live without wildlife on my property. Can't go back to the city... never.
