I could get a ticket for feeding the deer , but I seriously doubt I would. It interferes with their migratory instincts, it encourages a horrible disease called 'wasting disease' which is a variant of Mad Cow Disease and makes my neighbors angry at me.
They ate my strawberries, all my ground cover perennials and trimmed back every tree and shrub I have. I'm raising the fence this summer because I'm putting in a vegetable garden.
The snow is so high the deer are walking over my fence. They are sleeping in the shade of a huge Crabapple tree that shields the snow from falling underneath.
One bad thing....where there's deer there's cougars and it would not surprise me to have a cougar kill a baby under my back porch.
unreal... |

| They're rather cute little ones, aren't they? I remember waking up one morning to find a whacking great carthorse in the garden. The police organised taking it away. I never did find out where it came from (I was only eight at the time, though). |

| They are so cute, and your garden will never be the same! When we lived up in the hills, the deer would come out of the barranca and into our yard. They were very picky eaters though and only went for the rosebuds. We were lucky to get a couple of dozen mature flowers all year long. |

| You're sharing your perennials with them?! You *are* a kind person. They're adorable. I don't think I could resist feeding them, either. |

Hehe now you won't be able to get rid of them! Anyway they look so nice to me I wouldn't want to but dunno if they can do some kind of damage.
Wonderful place you live in. |
