The deer bow-hunting season here in Kentucky ends tomorrow. It runs pretty much non-stop from late September until mid-January. During the season, when I was able to get out to the woods, I saw precisely three deer, only one of which I could have gotten a legal shot at. Of course, that doe ran off before I could bring my gun to bear.
Occasionally, I would see small groups of deer here and there as I drove around. Luckily none of them tried to play chicken with my car again.
This morning, the day before bow season closes, and knowing full well that I will not be able to get out to the woods before hunting light ends this afternoon, I saw two groups of no less than 20 does apiece in fields near my home. While driving the interstate to the office, I saw between 5 and 10 other deer in pairs or singly, including one buck that had a big enough rack to make a grown man stare.
My question is this: Who gave the deer a bloody calendar so they'd know when it's safe to come out?
