Glen, I do love seeing them but it is not so good when they eat your shrubs and plants, I used to have lots of annuals out front and large pots of petunias and other plants, but then the deer keep increasing and would eat them so now I just have the little evergreens, the alyssum and lobelia out there. We had a large buck that used to jump the fence into the back yard and eat the birdseed during the winter, before spring we had to make the fence taller and spray it with the bloodmeal in order to keep him out.
