Yep, this is what we see during the winter. The deer rest and sleep on the hill behind our house, sheltered underneath some white pine trees. The needles make a soft, warm bed for them. At night we often see glowing eyes.
It's interesting to see tracks in the snow and follow their movement. In the summer they lurk around in the night and we don't know where they've been (unless of course they are eating plants). I see their hoof prints right up close to our windows. Some days it looks like we have 12 little kids that play outside in our yard from the amount of tracks they leave.
The deer are probably sick of winter too. They are patiently waiting for spring to come, just like us.
