Doe, a deer, a female deer,
Maybe five whole years of age,
It - is called - a White-tail 'cause
When lifted up the underside's all white
I - went stomping through the brush
Looked - for a campsite near a lake
Found - some grazing near the road
They were skittish and did bolt!

Long deer
i used to live on this ~1000 acre preserve deep in a mountain forested part of the region and white tail deer were everywhere, daily. most of them didn't even flee anymore. i'm oafishly clomping along some cut or trail and like 2-3 of them all stop eating and just stare at me like this.
like i have made the faux pas of interrupting their exclusive luncheon of cucumber sandwiches at the members only supper club.
my real entry-into-the-wilderness was the first time an unseen deer in the woods huffed at me while i was walking in the late evening to get my mail. i had never heard the sound before and for a sec thought it was some weirdo distracting me so his friend could roll me.
