I think I might be overfeeding the deers at my house. [View all]

Depending on the number of visitors showing up, I'll put out 2-5 lbs daily of cracked corn for the locals.

Today, I saw the biggest deer I've seen. My faithful dog Skippa, for whatever reason, was outside and didn't notice the diner until he was safely inside.



I called my neighbor and he approached the fat deer with a pail of food. Last I saw, they were heading into the woods. I mean, how do you get a 1500 lb fat deer to cooperate?

That's the oddest looking deer I EVER saw! They're usually a lot more graceful. CaliforniaPeggy Friday #2
