I'm in piedmont region of NC and in the past couple weeks there have been an inordinate amount of midday deer sightings, numerous roadkills way inside the city limits, etc. If this were November it would be no big deal, but I've not seen anything quite like this. Around here, the whole urban encroachment thing seemed to level off several years ago. City deer sightings are by no means rare, but movement has always been a nocturnal thing. I know that immature bucks get run out of the doe/yearling herds around this time of year, but these are mature bucks and does and not orphans. What gives?

Yes, throughout my life I am noticing that EVERYTHING is increasingly strange. There is a message here, but I'll (for once) keep it to myself. strange dave

My stepdaughter had two bull elk bedded down in her front yard the other day, in suburban Denver!

Coming through town a few minutes ago and one of the biggest 10 pointers I've ever seen ran in front of me followed by a doe.

Folks it's been just as unusual here in Missouri. Groundhogs, deer, and rabbits are out all during the daylight hrs lately. Go figure!
God bless,Mudd

I've seen two mid day deer in the past 10 days here in MD. Last year, none.

....so much corn, here; and they're trying to eat it all.

I had to brake for a little spike that was crossing the lane to the club house, last week. Early afternoon...

I have noticed an unusual number of deer car accidents. In the past 2 months, I have hit 3 driving home from working second shift.
