Let's start over......
Jim, thats actually much easier to do for me because all I have to do is walk out my back door and I have my choice of deer to take a picture of. It is actually much harder for us to see deer in the woods now.
Pictures in your backyard don't count. Go in the woods and stalk them, get shots in their world, not yours. Also, other critters. Can be very challanging.

That's the problem Jim our world is turning into their world with people feeding them in town all year round and the predators are following them as well. We have had sitings of wolves and cougars in town with in the last year and there was a wolf siting no more than 800 yards from my office headed into town. This has become such a problem that the city is discussing allowing archery hunting in town to thin the deer herd.
On the other hand. Taking pics in the backyard is not all that different from putting out feeders to attract them and get them to let their guard down and sitting in a blind waiting on them. 
At my daughters down in South Texas, they come through their yard in herds of 7 or 8. Over at the farm, I seldom see more than one at a time.

I have seen herds in town as large as two dozen before and I can count as many as a dozen on my way to work in the morning with in a couple blocks of our house. I thought my wife was going to take up hunting them from the upstairs bathroom window when they topped all of her flowers on the deck.

I'm waiting for more stuff to be packed so I can load it. I can see it being tomorrow before we leave.
