A male whitetail deer jogged right by me while I was standing in my driveway in Shaker Heights, Ohio. Apparently, two does ran by just a minute or two earlier, but I didn’t see them. This buck was in hot pursuit. He came close enough that I could have touched him, but he was obviously focused on following the does. The video was taken in mid-November, 2017.
