Interesting. Very few foxes around here. Sometimes, yes, I can jump around and wave and the deer won't move, usually when they are laying down pooped. Other times if I move, they move. Depends I think how much the see the territory as "their" territory and not just a passing through territory. But I am not sure about that. I may say under my breath about a spotted fawn, "Aren't you cute," but it never occurred to me to talk to them. Hehehehe. Marnie aka Doe Okay, I can nix that one before even trying it. ;-) Good luck with your future shots and good luck to me too.
