this is a smartphone snapshot from my backyard. I often wonder where deer stay in winter conditions. This winter isn't too bad, but last winter we had 4 feet snow or more around the house. There's not much food to be found then I would think.

Nice backyard! Where the deer roam freely! I've never even seen a deer outside of a zoo or theme park.
On the other hand, I've never seen 4 feet of snow around here either! :)
Great photo, excellent contrast!

Thanks for the comment!
I remember when I was young we'd occasionally go out on a Sunday morning walk. Once in a snowy winter we saw a wild deer. It was somewhere in the fields/forests around my hometown in Limburg but I don't remember exactly where.

Whoah, that's awesome :) Is that Limburg in the Netherlands/Belgium? Not that I'm fishing for your life's story here...
In Belgium, along the highways, there are signs with 'Watch out, crossing deer' every other 2 kilometres, but in 21 years of driving along those roads I've never seen one cross. Not that I'd would want to bump into one, for that matter :P

Limburg in the Netherlands :)
Yes we had those road signs also, and I don't remember seeing a deer while driving either.
Where I live now we have road signs for crossing Black Bears... and I had once a bear run across the street in front of my car, just outside our town.
Deer can be seen very frequently while driving here, they cross the road often. But on the road signs they are always shown as jumping - I always expected them to jump out of the forest, but no, mostly they just leisurely walk across...

Aaah, that's why I never spot them, I'm constantly looking for the jumping ones! :P

I'm not sad about not having seen 4 feet of snow though!
The deer in the wild, yeah, I'd like to see that :)

4 feet of fresh snow... it's ton's of fun!
Random story from January 2000: It started snowing heavily in the middle of the night, I pinged the kid from a few houses up the road on ICQ to meet outside and enjoy the fun. After a short while we decide to warm up and hopped into his car parked in the driveway. We hot-boxed in there for a while. Stoner time is a bit distorted, but we couldn't have been in there all too long. When we wanted to get back out, the doors just wouldn't open. Unbeknown to us the snow had intensified like crazy, so much, that the doors were blocked from outside. We had to roll down the windows and literally punch our way out through the snow!
Certainly one of the most memorable nights of my life. Digging through waist high snow-dunes high as a kite... no, not the dunes... me! Officially it was apparently "only" like 2 feet of snow, but adding some wind it was plenty enough to bury cars entirely.
and that's what 2 feet of snow look like:
so now you've seen that for yourself, too!

Thank you. Actually this is a color photo, but under these dark weather conditions with a grey sky the world almost looks black and white.

You have a lot of 'large' wildlife just outside you window, a great place for a photographer like yourself. There must be a lot more to see if you go out there a little further.

Thanks @slobberchops. Yes there's a lot to see here. I live at the foot of a mountain, and there's plenty of wild life around here :)
