Took a drive last night up to Dover from Bangor around dusk. I counted 18 deer.

I also saw the weirdest thing. In one field I looked out and saw 2 turkeys and a cat about 100 yards away making her way across the field towards them. Way up behind them about 150 more yards off in the distance were 2 deer standing there.

Was this in Corinth by any chance? I have seen alot of deer in that town.

It sure was. I saw most of them there but I did see some up closer to Dover too.

The cat, turkey, and deer field was right in Corinth.

Was there any across or behind the Countryside Restaraunt? I see quite a few there every year about this time. Another hot place for deer is just pass the ledges in Charleston, heading towards dover.

I don't recall seeing any there. The guy I was with said one time he went by a field that had a ton of deer out in that same field where I saw the deer and turkeys. He turned around and went back and counted and he counted upwards of 100 deer.

That is insane!

Spring has sprung.......hunt that area hard this fall.......you are near a major yard or holding area.

Those deer Remington saw will not be in the area come fall. I grew up in that area and it's just a deer yard.

Some deer use the same areas all season and stay in the yards to winter.........but hide in thevacinity all year to avoid pressure increases due to urbanization .
