at least not like humans. Turkeys on the other hand seem to be able to.

I was wearing florescent hunter red vest and hat .. accidentally walked up on a whitetail buck. I was within 10 feet of him .. he had stepped out from behind a tree that was between us.

I froze and so did he. He could smell me or somehow sense I was there, but he could not tell where. He would look at me (I did not make eye contact) then look away .. then look another direction .. he kept that up for 5 or 6 minutes before deciding to ease off into the brush.

It was really amazing. I was standing out in the open, completely visible. Bright shiny red. But I did not move. And he could not tell for sure where I was.
