These are the deer that were grazing in my daughter's
front yard this morning. In the front center is a doe
with twin fawns. When they finish eating the grass may
not need to be cut!
Yes Robin, they can be very destructive. My daughter has not gotten into flowers yet but the deer don't bother her shrubs. One day last year she had a bird feeder with sunflower seeds hanging at the edge of her porch. She wondered why they kept disappearing until she caught a deer sticking his tongue into the feeder and eating the seed. She moved it and hasn't hand any more problems with the deer eating the seeds.

Barbara has had a long time desire to learn to paint. Her interest was encouraged after taking classes with a local instructor. Retirement has allowed the time to further pursue her love of acrylic and oil painting and photography. She has a great appreciation for God’s creation and its beauty and she strives to capture it on canvas and in photos. When she is not painting, she is in the garden working with her many flowers and always has her camera ready for that special photo. Her “backyard photography” includes everything from flowers to wildlife to sunsets and rainbows.

Wow! That's a lot of deer! Fun to see but I'm sure they are destructive too.
