Deer vision and sight?

how would a deers vision be like??? i heard all they see is black and wite and its also blurry...they also cant see above their heads without having to move their head...is this all true? if not what?Deer vision and sight?
they can see blue and yellow, but not red or green.


their vision is not blurry at all, they see quite well, but their sight is more attuned to movement though. they can't see above their heads without moving them, no natural reason for them to look up, no natural predator hunts them from the trees, and if they could see up without moving their heads, wouldn't treestand hunting be pointless?Deer vision and sight?
Deer generally considered color blind, that is why hunters wear bright orange. They rely mostly on sounds and scents.





Their sight is relatively poor. That is why, if a deer looks at you, it cannot see you if you freeze.





Deer CAN see above their heads, but DO NOT normally look above their heads. With the exception of only a few areas, deer do not have any natural predators that attack from above, therefore, the deer do not instinctively look up. This is why you see many hunters in deer stands and tree stands.
they don't see the red green spectrum well but there sight is excellent . thats why you should wash your hunting clothes in a none phosfurous soap like ';sport-wash'; . regular soaps have brighteners in them show up as blue haze to deer they'll pick you out everytime.
To add to what already has been said, besides their exceptional vision I'd also be concerned about their hearing and smelling abilities! With those great senses, if they were as smart as us they'd be nearly impossible to hunt!
Deer are red/green colorblind. They see reds and greens as shades of gray. They see yellows and blues quite well.
Thats what the experts say!
ask one
