We're in the middle of deer season right now. The deer are all stirred up in the woods and more of them get hit on the road this time of year. As I was driving into work today, there was a deer lying on the road, curled up in the Bambi's Mother pose, with the front legs bent underneath the chest and the head and neck up and reasonably alert. It wasn't dead yet, but since it was in the middle of the left-hand lane on westbound Route 30 (Lincoln Highway), I didn't figure it long survived my passing.

( The rest of the day was somewhat less depressing... )
