Deer Afloat in Flood Waters
While taking photos of the rising Mississippi waters, Gary caught pictures of a young male deer which apparently was swept up in the flood waters.
He made it to shore only to run into a brick wall which left him stunned.
Police and animal specialists were summoned to the scene.
The young spike made it to safety. You can see him looking back at the crowd.
What a photo opportunity. It pays to be in the right place at the right time. You can see more of Gary's pictures at our website.
Mississippi Flood
Channel 5 News continues to use pictures that Gary shot in their lead stories. Here's the latest.
The Mississippi River in downtown Memphis had reached 44-feet-2-inches as of 6 a.m. Wednesday morning. The Army Corps of Engineers says this is the highest the river has been since terrible floods drenched the Mid-South in 1937 and the worst is still to come.
WMCTV Channel 5 used this picture Gary took yesterday. The parking lot where we stood on Sunday is now flooded as evidenced by this picture below.
Here is another picture from Channel 5: My 5: Rising waters at Harbor Town
