I have seen lone deer and i have seen whole herds swimming out into open water. I have seen deer leaving RI mainland and without a doubt they were heading to block Island. I have seen many leaving prudence sland on their way into portsmouth. I have also seen them out off cuttyhunk where you could not easily figure where they might be going. One thing is sure , they are good swimmers.
One interesting observation is that while I have seen deer many times swimming in salt water , i have never personally seen one swimming in fresh water ponds , lakes , etc. I'm sure it happens but I've never seen it myself.
