Sheridragonfly,
Glad you like the pic of my fawn. You sound like my hubby and me. We also feed our deer cracked corn and apples. They also get our stale bread and fresh veggie scraps and peelings etc. We have a bird bath (which I have NEVER seen a single bird use) that provides extra water for the deer in the summer. We also have had the same extended family of deer for years. In the spring we take note of the pregnant does ... then for a short time in early summer they disappear for a few weeks. But soon they return to show us their new "babies". They are such beautiful, gentle creatures.
