Tail straight up

[Jeremy K]

So ,for the past week or so i have been seeing these 3 monster bruisers on my way to work ,just hanging out eating and what not , well today ,one of these big ol boys was eating but his tail was standing straight up while he was eating ,i have never seen a deer tail stand straight up for that long (unless they are running away from me) Any idea what he was up to ? There was some fog going on at the time if they means anything.

I've got to watch these deer almost everyday, today was the first day they weren't hanging out together . First sign of things to come possibly.

maybe he was picking up a strange scent?

maybe he was picking up a strange scent?

Or just Leaving one

Tail up is a warning and whether he showed it or not- guessing he was letting the other deer know something was askew

Saw some bucks licking branches already.

They will do that when dropping some pellets

Too much cheese in his diet I am betting

When my family and I went to a deer farm in PA, the bucks sometimes raised their tails when the feed was being given to them, maybe it means he was happy or content with what he was eating?
