Margaret, I think your deer must be a lot bigger than the ones that my Dad has at his place! Either that, or they just don't bother jumping the fence, since they can get over the gate. The gate has been dented by them though, so they don't always make it over without a bruise or two. I've seen his deer, and to me, they are small. They sure aren't the mule deer that I'm used to.
Polly, when you mentioned the scarecrow, I thought you meant an actual scarecrow! I wonder if one of those would do any good? Have any of you tried that? I do like the water one too, but I'm kind of curious about a plain old scarecrow. I may have to give that a try!
This is a great thread! I'm getting a lot of great information from everyone!
