Deer are often seen running across the roadways. Either hunters scare them up, or they travel in herds consisting of a few bucks and several does. Deer run through fields disrupting the regular wildlife activity. Deer can be seen any time of the day or night during hunting season. Normally, one sees the most deer at dawn and dusk. Non-hunters may want to think about wearing orange when going outdoors, especially if you live on a dirt road or have fields and woods nearby.<\/p>\n Although archery season has been going on, firearm season is what moves the deer around. Loud noises and many people in the woods stir up creatures in the wild. When driving, it is best to think ahead and drive defensively.<\/p>\n Deer season can be an enjoyable time to watch wildlife right outside your door. Using simple precautions will help the season pass smoothly.<\/p>\n Firearm season opened this morning one-half hour before sunrise.
