I've got three that tie...the first happened about ten years ago, maybe a little longer...I was deer hunting on opening morning back home, and had snuck in to a little spot underneath a tree on the side of a hill. I was hunting on the ground, as is my habit, and I was sitting flat on my butt, with my legs stuck out in front of me. I heard a noise, and slowly turned my head...and out comes a herd of doe...about ten, total. They were running straight at me, and several of them passed so close that a couple of them actually jumped over my legs! They stopped in a clearing about twenty yards from me...except for the last one. She saw me, and stopped about four feet away! She couldn't smell me...cover scent...but knew something was wrong. She came closer, gave my shoulder a good sniff, and apparantly decided I was part of the tree, and rejoined the herd. I swear, though, if I had gotten a chill and shivered, I would have bumped into her! They milled around a bit, then left.
