treehugger said: Anyway, instead of placing a row of shrubs 3' inside the fence (too expensive) I use the shrubs. Over time it has become invisible to my eye and it works. I still spray Liquid Fence once a month from October to April. This also discourages the new herds that form when the deer rut to stay away from my uninviting yard. Now I just need a good ground cover to hide the shrub from my visitors view.

@treehugger

This is a fence that the county put up? Can you grow vines on it during the summer if you wanted? I think it is pretty neat that you live next to county woodlands that border your property. I can imagine the birds you see and get during the years. Do you feed the birds? On the other side of the fence, is that all county woodlands?

We feed the birds every day here, year 'round. Feeders and ground feeding.

What kind of shrubs are you referring to? I didn't notice them in your pics. How tall are they?

Nice photos.
