>>came across a duck once with ducklings in tow crossing a sharp bend , makes you think sometimes that were not the only road users , never come across a deer tho
The police actually closed the main road into Bournemouth for a few minutes a couple of months ago because a duck & entourage were trying to cross it and causing havoc.
When I lived in Basingstoke deer were a relatively common hazard, especially on the road to Alresford. Nowadays, commuting across the New Forest at 06:45 hrs., hazards have included ponies, cows, horses, donkeys, pigs, curlews, goats and a West Highland Terrier. Not all on the same journey thankfully ;-)
