Last weekend around 5:30, while still light out, we were driving down hy 60 (30 mile north of MKE) & saw a herd of 17 deer about 1 block away in a field eating old corn in the snow. What a treat! To see that many so close. Cars going by didn't affect them. Yet, during hunting season, we - & hunters hardly saw any further north where all the hunters go.
Here is a email I just got. It came with a pic but I guess I can't post it cuz it shows a dead deer that got hit by a car....
---People in Kankakee County, Illinois have a warped sense of humor.
It must be something in the coal-infused water.
This is the pull off at SR 17 and Hopkins Park Rd.
A deer was hit there.
The couch was dumped there previously.
Day two the deer was on the couch.
Day three the end table and lamp showed up.
Day four the TV and TV stand showed up.
The Trooper had to call IL DOT because of all the people stopping to take pictures.
The cardboard caption in front of the deer on the couch reads,
"Sorry Hunters.
Obama ruined healthcare.
We can't afford to have injured hunters on our conscience,
so I'm staying home!
Sorry,
The Deer ---
