A friend e-mailed these to me tonight. He claims they were taken in Central Wis.
The deer wasn't as bashfull as he should have been, Even after taking off, he stopped for one more look back, out of cover.
I was told the guy got within 30 feet before it stepped down off the shoulder of the raod.

wow...never seen anything like that.
I've had a few get sent in to be done from the lower states. Tennessee mainly.
They are a beautiful creature, I'd love to have one on my wall.
I have a friend of mine that sent me a picture he took off of his farm up in Minnesota, a solid white deer. I will see if I can get him to send it to me again. If he does I will post it.
Piebald deer? :confused:
Yep, quite uncommon but we do have a few around here. When I saw my first… thought someone’s goat had gotten loose. It ends up there are a half dozen or so in that area. We also have albinos but they are illegal to shoot. :shrug:
But then again… being half way between the Oak Ridge DOE/Nuclear Labs and Watts Bar nuclear power plant….. I get used to seeing strange things. :shck:
:biggrin:
LOL! :laf: Poor Chet. So is it really true you have six fingers on three of your hands.
Here is a piebald g'hog I shot this summer ...

First one I ever seen. I thought it had mange till I walked up to it. It wasn't missing any hair & was in good shape! :eyebrow:
So where does the term 'Piebald' come from?
That is a good question. I'm not touching that one :nono:
:laf: Had to look it up! I like my definition better! :roflmao:
I can just imagine that one ~nailbender.
It means spotted and or patched...but I'm not sure where it came from.
I better leave that one alone. Wild lookin' deer though! I would have swerved at it!

Here's another one ... from Ohio. :biggrin:

thats crazy looking. We have a couple albino deer on my uncles land. Were allowed to harvest them here in Indiana but I never have. My uncle wanted us to leave them alone so we have always respected his wish
