For those of you who ever claimed a prize from us or visited us out on remote Hart Road radio and web mancave in Towson you know that we have quite a significant deer population. Virtually every afternoon, we see a herd running through our fields. For a kid from Dundalk, where the sight of a squirrel in my neighborhood drew large crowds akin to the sight of a police car on the street, living amongst Bambie is still fun.

Last week, when we were remodeling the studio, I got my first-ever glimpse of four gigantic bucks — all more than 6-pointers. I’ve had this location since May 1998 and I don’t think I’ve seen five bucks in 11 years. Ray Bachman swears he’s never seen a single buck in all the years. So to see a dozen deer literally 20 feet from the basement window was a rare treat.

We’ve had two albino deer over the years — including a Loch Ness or Yeti-like sighting about two months ago — and lately this little guy below has intrigued me.

I’ve seen him at least five times and I’m always wondering if his horn will eventually stand up. Or whether the other deer treat him like Rudolph? But he is clearly pretty unique — maybe even more so than the albino we saw.

I carry my camera everywhere I go — and this limp, little guy stood there like a lawn ornament and stared at me for a few minutes. He was 10 feet away and I captured him.

Kinda cool, right?
