The deer (Capreolus capreolus)
also European to distinguish it from the Siberian roe deer is in Central Europe the most common representative of deer.

Adult deer measure 100 to 140 cm from head to rump, and reach a shoulder height between 60 and 90 cm. full-grown male animals have an average weight of 15 to 30 kg, female weigh 10 to 15% less.
The fur is strongly Red-Brown, grey-brown in winter, or dark brown in summer. The coat of the Rehkitze is reddish brown and has a white dotting on the back and on the flanks.

Blue reflectors will curb the wild

Because the number of wild accidents is constantly increased in recent years, the game Butenland has opted for new game reflectors. Perhaps they are an or other of you even noticed - the blue reflectors.
Tossens are particularly dangerous for deer and drivers (stick), Eckwarder old Dyke, Ruhwarden (exit towards Mürrwarden), Langwarden (direction Mürrwarden), Waddens (Boving) and ancestral Dyke/inte.

Attempts to hold the wild by the previous Red reflectors on Kreisstraße thereof, to cross the street, were not the desired effect. In the the blue reflectors jade are already in use, and it seems as if the animals respond more to blue as on another light.

Now, new spotlights have been installed in all areas of risk from the hunters of Hegerings.
 
When I here go along the road, the reflectors seem to me rather a warning signal for the driver. Blue means: "Foot of the gas - animal possible!" The deer run morning still directly in front of the school bus on the road or switch to the opposite field evening unimpressed!

But beautiful, they are so sparkling and blue. Together with the white reflectors of the Kreisstraße and the old red spotlights give some color the grey winter day in Butjadingen! And I trust not the thought of a deer attacked eh - since I drive in said places rather cautious and slightly slower. Would be a shame to so a pretty animal!
