The white tail deer are getting like that around our house. It's not unusual to see them hanging in the yard with the turkeys. I'd rather have the turkeys(they were here today) 'cause they're like vacuum cleaners to bugs. Yesterday, there were twin fawns in the front flower garden munching on what's left of this spirngs plantings. I walked out the front door and they started walking up to me. They came within 10 ft. of me and didn't seem the least bit scared. This is a picture of one of them taken not long after birth as it hunkered down during an approaching thunderstorm. I'm dam glad there's no moose in NJ, we already can't hunt the black bear.

Yeah, we have a tame doe this year too. She just had her fawn a couple weeks ago. Amazing to watch the little ones jumping and bouncing thru the lawn, trying to play with the chickens. Not a care in the world.VigIIPeaBurner wrote:The white tail deer are getting like that around our house.
