I love to see them in someone else's yard. They eat everything and its hard to grow plants that they will leave alone. I guess that's the price we pay for the beauty of nature

It is a beautiful picture, they are getting fat eating that food you have supplied.

We have about six of them here in town and I call them our wondering yard ornaments. I enjoy them but they sure are hard on the flowers and gardens of other neighbors. Don't know why but they have left my roses alone. Must be my doorman Chuck "a blue healer"

I'm on Long Island's south shore and believe it or not, the deer come visit my yard as well! Nature is so perfect!

We lived in the city of North Little Rock, AR where our property was very close to a huge urban park and we had more wild life in our yard than we ever saw out camping. Deer, raccoon, ground hogs, foxes, plus all the common like squirrels,etc. It was a joy to sit in the den and feel like we were in the country.

My dream is to live in the country and see this every day. I am so tired of living in a huge city. At least we are near the Rouge Valley, an enormous National Park. One day...

I miss it so much. Moved from the Black Hills of SD to Hill Country Texas. After being here a year, I dream about days like you have. But I would never wish this for Texans, I see how the drive on dry roads. Thanks for sharing.
