  1. Yes
While we had to go away, as we do we get lost and came across these Deer's but no time to stop as the wedding was going to be happening real soon.
We were still a distance away and had to get there but swore if we see these while driving around we would stop.
After 2 days we moved to a new town for a couple of day and on the way there we seen them.
So we had to walk back as they were on a bend and it was a 1st for me to see Deer's.

Fantastic!! Our deer are literally SO different. Love to see these.
 
I remember seeing these deer wild in Dublin’s Phoenix Park - wild in the middle of the city!

They startled me as looking a bit like mini-moose - those antlers look nothing like the antlers on other deer.

Even though I call myself a birder. I think these were the high light of our time away from home. I had no idea these are in those parts.
Looking them up was one of the easiest things I have ever done. I put down Deers with spots and these were there right away.

On looking these up to get the name I noticed what you said with the Antlers. These have more Moose like if that is right over the branching off ones. But so please to have seen them as we thought we might never go down the same road again but this showed we did.
