Deer Squat
Deer squat.
Did you know that? Because I sure didn't and I wouldn't have believed it had I not seen it for myself this morning.
I was amusing myself on the commute this morning by adoring the gorgeous clear day. I looked out into a big grassy field somewhere in the pastoral lands between Morgan Hill and Gilroy...when I noticed a bunch of deer in the field.
"Awwww", I thought, "Look at all those deer... how cute. With the sunshiney morning light and the bright green.....hey...what are those deer doing?"
About 4 of the deer were squatting. And I couldn't tell if they were doing #1 or #2, but they were definitely relieving themselves cuz they had that look on their faces that cats get when you watch them use the litter box.
And I still don't know why they were all going at the same time. Probably all girl deers.
Wish I would have stopped to take a picture because the google image search on this was pretty scarce.
I have no idea why this amuses me. What a ridicuous blog post.

Just goes to show that the idea that deer don't know squat is a fallacy.
Thats a pic to hang in the lav for pondering
that's quite the natural bidet the deer has goin there...or maybe he just has a super hot ass
I've had a thing these past few days for super hot asses it seems
mmmm...me tooo. Thx for the pics..
you people sure are dorky
why thankyou anon!
reminds me of a time i was in cuba bike racing (don't ask) ... i got bad, waaay bad food poisoning in a town called Cienfuegos during one of the stage races (yeah ... the town of '100 fires' ... that's some bootron irony, baby).
This sports doc (i'm assuming it was a doc), examined me with a chosen non-english tongue and after a few minutes of squinting eyes and latino charades, handed me one of those single serving aspirin bottles you buy for $3.95 at the airport.
His gestures and emphasis made me understand i was to provide a ... sample.
"Numero dos?"
i wanted confirmation. Nothing as embarrassing as providing the wrong sample.
Unfortunately, he was asking for a sample during the 20 hours of the day that there was no water flowing in the sports facility we were staying at.
... literally, no water except between 7am - 9am.
stinky.
So anyway, without a bathroom to hide in (didn't matter, i had already destroyed the dorm room bathroom the night before ... i mean, destroyed ... hurlings and rear explosions all frickin night long after a 120 mile stage ... i was a strained, stained, ugly little piece of forgotten beef jerkey), i dragged my emaciated, dehydrated, unrecovered butt out to the jungles that bordered the sporting complex like a chaotic advance of an invading fungus.
I struggled out as best i could to find a quiet moment and place of tranquility for my sample production.
5 minutes of squatty-squatty yielded nothing but shaky legs and bulging veins in the forehead.
10 minute after that, and i was risking blowing a gasket into unconsciousness from the struggle to pass out an anemic little lump of 'Hi-dee-ho, everybody!'
As i was in ... mid-excrementus, up walks some local yokal, in full cubano field worker flair.
Of course, first it was hearing him that was the poo-mood breaker - causing me a sigh of, 'oh, what the hell next?'
I just looked over at him mid-poodle production ... waiting for the punch line to drop, espanol or not.
It's then i noticed, this dude is carrying, no lie, an empty bird cage in his right hand. He's trucking through the cubano woodsey-woodseys, pampering and balancing a brightly-shiny empty birdcage as if it's got the imaginary goose laying golden right then and there.
He was this a dark, thin, aged man - wind carved by the carribean tropicals and sun-burned by the evil wages of colonial residue.
He took one look at me, dead pan-like, and nodded a greeting without breaking his jungle pace. It was done with more dignity and calm than 99% of the aMErican men i've ever come in shouting distance of would have produced.
amazing.
