    Your lawn is lovely. Don't you dare start that mower! Please keep us posted on the fawn's growth and be sure to throw out some corn and millet for mom. It is the day after Mother's Day after all.

    Beautiful shot. Here in Colorado, I'm pretty sure it's illegal to feed wildlife.

    BTW, I've heard rosemary bushes make great deer barriers. Apparently, deer do not like rosemary and won't go near the stuff. (Probably because they know how well they go with it.)

    Professional garden design + installation expert that lives very near me - as in, same house, same bedroom - is pretty firm that there is nothing that will stop a deer from feeding on you plants - short of (a) 8'+ tall fence, or (b) freezer full of venison.

    Enjoy the show.
    When I started woodworking, I didn't know squat. I have progressed in 30 years - now I do know squat.

    Where I live there are so many deer that they want to have professional shooters to thin the herd but the real reason they think that by doing that there will be less Lyme disease carried by the deer tick.

    I would have cut the lawn this morning but it was frozen
    Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "...Holy Cow....what a ride!"

    Mama must know that it is safe there, or you wouldn't be seeing them. We have deer and turkey in the yard at times, but I've not seen a baby in the almost 6 years we've been here. Jim.
