They really must have needed food to do that to all your trees addy. I guess if they will all grow back new foliage all will be good again. I think you need to invest in some bales of hay or whatever they eat in the winter like that and maybe they won't eat so much of your stuff. Poor deer ..............oh sheesh now the smilies are down again..........back to my own

Adds whole new meaning to the term "deer lick". Sorry, just couldn't resist..........

Well Addy at least you had your web cams to keep an eye on things while you were gone. The deer should have plenty to eat soon.

JW never seen that view of your yard. Nice, love the view.

She has a beautiful place!

I could see them coming to eat I never see the deer on the yard slope above the pond, but saw herds of them during the winter , Our cameras are about 3 years old, there are newer better ones out now, in fact costco has some on sale for q-see that I am going to look into and replace some of ours. You can see, but I could not pick out the damage to the trees until we got here, they were too far away. Now that I know it is there you can see it on the front camera.

Maybe I will post cheap q-see system if anybody would want one, if I replace our system.

The deer were starving, we have not had this bad of a winter in a long time. If we had been here I would have bought food for them. Cypress is one of the last things they will eat.

We have 8 cameras running and at times could use more. I want to have one on the bee hives the other side of the house. I love to watch the yard, ponds etc. When the storm blew in last night we had a heads up, the one camera showed the black black clouds that were coming.......

Thanks sissy, I have not gotten around to thinking about it, busy catching up here.

My neighbors said we had herds of bucks, does, fawns lined up down our driveway eating the bushes, up to 30 at a time. She said some of them were beautiful bucks, full racks.
