Oh Deer

The other day we were riding down the road and something off in the woods caught my eye. Tony was driving so I asked him to turn the car around so I could take a closer look.

I probably shouldn't admit this...but this happens to me quite a lot. For some reason I seem to notice "things". It's like if something is a little off or a bit different it just leaps out at me. Not only when I'm in the car...all the time.

Does that make sense to you? Probably not. Don't worry...you're not the only one. I think it's safe to say that Tony would not list my knack for noticing and needing to investigate when things aren't quite "right" as one of my most endearing qualities!

This is what we saw:



Can you tell what it is?

I know, I know, the picture quality is terrible!

It's a deer. A white and brown deer. A Piebald Deer to be exact. Can you see the deer's face right next to the skinny tree trunk? It's looking right at the camera.

The link says that less than 1% of the whitetail deer population has this genetic condition. Hmm, I wonder if Tony will think it was worth turning the car around for now?? Nah!
