I spotted this white-tailed doe and another together on the side of the road near some homes in Dunrobin, Ontario, Canada on a December 2024 morning. The other started walking to follow a trail of seeds or nuts while this one stayed put to give me a strong pose before she walked away with her shopping partner. The two deer were cautious but not afraid, keeping a safe distance and always keeping me in their sights. They allowed me to stay on the side of the road in my vehicle to watch them for nearly 20 minutes before they decided to hop away. @danidmedia
