FROM ADA ICON - On Tuesday morning, The Icon, heading east on Lima Avenue near Ohio Northern University, spotted a deer family traveling from the south side of the avenue to the north side and toward the woods on campus.
In addition to the deer, a flock of Canada geese stood ready to fend off anyone who came too close.
After stopping to watch, the Icon took the following photos of the deer crossing the street.
