Where are deer during the day?

i live in missouri and there are deer all over the place towards sunset and night but where are they during the morning and afternoon?Where are deer during the day?
sleepin or hiding


probly hiding frm ure face :)Where are deer during the day?
At the 'BUCK or two' stores.
the woods or in meadows
They are bedding down somewhere in the woods. Usually in the same area.
In Missouri.....they hang around Springfield@ Bass Pro Shop
Deer rarely ';Bed Down'; during the day in fact they move as much and often more mid day as any other time,but being creatures of habit they stick close to their bedding areas,venturing out to feed and water in the early morning and late day ,they do this because their ability to see is better as they can distinguish shadows better at these times,and this adds to their ability to avoid predators also as shadows grow darker a predators eye sight gets worse also working to the deers advantage that is why you see them more early and late day because they venture farther and move more readily at those times.
At a matinee.





Hiding and resting like we do at night.
The deer find hidden places like under a bush or in a draw and places that are off the beaten track. They lie down in those places so there is very little of their bodies to be seen then they come out in the evening to feed.
cougars are always looking for deer
they sleep under bushes
