The deer whisperer

Here we are. It's snowing today.

These photos are from the other day. Last night we've had 8cm of snow, with more on the way. We were well on our way towards spring!

WOW! Look at all those deer!
When I was driving home from the OSPCA I saw a LOT of deer hanging out in farm fields and driveways. I wonder why they are bunching up NOW?

Spring is ephemeral, never predictable, almost unknowable...but we love it anyway, don't we?

Fantastic shots of the deer.

These guys will make you go broke. Funny how they can be very demanding for food.
Some difference from last year when I think you had a high or two of 25 C!

Beautiful photos Jenn, can't believe how cold it still is.

karen, the deer do find winter yards and gather in the winter, keeping together for warmth and protection.

Red, each only gets a mouthful. It is worth it to watch them. The feed is a 40kg bag, for $20 from Dodds & Erwin. It's good food and makes us feel happy to help them. They are safe here.
