Alffe's Pictures!!!

Too cute. Have y'all nicknamed him?

;) St. Bambi ? He is a cutie.
We feed a small herd of white tail in our yard. "Oh, look, the small doe is eating the hosta. Isn't she enchanting?"

Oh thank you Curious! They are really dark...Debora(church secretary apolygized for this) but dang! I am so happy to see him alive and eating!!

I see a pair of eyes to the right of the deer in that first shot ....

Yes Scrabble...he isn't alone anymore and I am thrilled about that. The secretary said he's with three other deer, two are smaller than he is. Her office overlooks the yard where all her bird feeders are and she can see the deer activity.

I left her a corn block to put out when the other is gone and some apples.
I wish that busy street wasn't so close but not much I can do about that.

Oh, I love deer too.

We feed them on our island in the summer, and give salt. They LOVE a salt
block! You will have them forever if you put one out.

Here is my favorite deer picture, since the subject came up. That is my son,
when he was in early high school, grilling our dinner. I taught him how to cook over several years, on summer vacations.

This particular deer was the first to come over to us (they have to swim over)
and we had her for 3 season's before she passed on. All of her relatives continue to visit us. But none were so tame as she. We named her Effie.

I have always loved this picture, since it is so unusual, and because it shows my son with his greatest smile!

Edit to add--- yes, deer eat everything Jingle. I try to keep a small wildflower garden on the shore, and have to use one
of the "ultrasonic" alarms to protect my few flowers. It runs on batteries and spooks them off if they come too close. I found that putting a bucket of water out for them, keeps them off our shore, and that helps too. But we see them drinking down the way, sometimes!

Great picture Mrs.D.....and a great smile. Thanks for sharing.

I can't put a salt block out on church property or I sure would. The custodian isn't thrilled that I am feeding him at all.
He believes in survival of the fittest....AND when it's grass cutting time again, he says I have to quit but that deer will be bigger still by then.

I have to show you our white tail. Their salt block is a bit below them - deeper in the trees but you can see their water dish. We feed them cracked corn. The photos are fuzzy because they're taken through the screen of the porch.
