I have a herd of about 40 deer on my property through out the winter months. Love watching them. I have a stand of pines they yard together in and there is good eating nearby.
I think they yard up here because the coyotes wont come around because of my shepherd, he watches the deer all day long. A small buck is kinda friendly with him, they are sometimes three feet between my fence, the dog and deer, pretty interesting how they get along..

First flower garden I planted, the deer ate everything. The second flower garden I planted, I used only deer resistant plants, and the deer ate everything anyway. The third flower garden...... I got a dog.

This is the first place I have lived without deer. Being on the saltwater helps, they do not go down to drink it and they do not come in from that direction. Only seen 1 since 2015

Nice, I had 5 mule does greet me this morning when I showed up to work. I usually have whitetails at home, but my neighbors dog has all but chased off all the critters. Time to shoot the neighbor.... LOL. Can't really blame the dog.

Yeah, that herd looks about like our "crew". They often sleep and play on my mulch pile.

We don't have that many coming around and they have never in 40 years done any harm to our flowers or garden. I probably just jinxed myself but for now we enjoy watching them when they show.

Ours have eaten just about everything she has ever planted except barberry bushes (lots of little thorns) and jonquils (poison). They especially like anything that is listed as "deer resistant"
