This is a great series! Trevor and I were slow jigging a rocky shoreline at Glendo Res. in Wyoming … it was about 6 or 6:30 in the morning. When Trev pointed out the deer on the shore … I grabbed my camera and by the time I started taking pics they were down at the waters edge. they looked at us twice and then splash … “Where the heck do they think they are going” I asked. “They can’t be, …. they’re going to swim the lake!!!” All seven deer jumped in and swam across the lake… there was a point when they looked as though they may panic, however, they swam on. At this time of year, this particular spot is one of the busiest on the lake, yet not one boat came by and all seven deer made it safely to the other shore. We figure that stretch of water is somewhere between a half mile and a mile wide.
