Feeding Trough
Since I've been seeing the deer footprints, and I also noticed that the flowering kale had been eaten down to the stalk in a big lawn flower pot, I decided to put a couple of shriveled apples in the flower pot. I checked the place each day for a couple of days and the apples were still there. This afternoon when I checked again, the apples were gone! That's what I was hoping for. I put three more there. I'll check again tomorrow morning.
The fields are beginning to open up now, though, so the deer won't be desperate for found food. On the way home from the store this morning, I saw 8-10 deer in one of last year's corn fields. They were grazing on something! I like to see them finding food, but I'm not the farmer. He probably won't mind then getting last year's leftovers, but he won't want them to graze there when this year's crop is planted.
