Hungry Deer
The deer have been looking hungry lately. With all this snow on the ground they stick their snouts way deep looking for the grass that's still there. I got some deer corn for them (dried corn kernels) and whenever I see them come around I step out on the deck and fling a bunch on the snow. They perk up when they see me opening the sliding door to the deck and the mama deer stands her ground and just calmly gazes at me but the young ones take off and won't come back until I'm inside the house.
Do you see how shaggy their coats look? In the summer they are a beautiful smooth, glossy brown but their winter coat is fluffier and greyer.

I can't believe you have snow and its 75 degrees here. The pictures are beautiful!
And there are still four more months of snow left! Loooong winters here.
