Been a bit of overnight damage

Looks like that Deer came back & brought all his mates, hoof prints everywhere.

 

Oh deer!! (sorry Zigs, couldn't resist it!)

 

They didn't like the sorrel then ,

I should give them something nice to eat, we give our wildlife plenty to eat and they still like to dig up the pots just for fun

Just think how nice they're going to taste when you catch them!! Zigs

Deer with a oinon taste

 

Looks like venison is back on the menu then Zigs?

 

Very disheartening!

 

I read in a book that putting human hair around fencing (border edging?) deters deer.
I used to put the cleanings from my hairbrush out for birds.
One of my children gave me a queer look stating: "We don't have any deer?"
Mum: "Must work then!"

 

Fortunately i'm behind with planting out this year, could have been a lot worse.

They've never come into the garden before this year.

Busy night out there last night, half a rabbit in the garden too.

 

View attachment 16943View attachment 16943 Oh Zigs you have my sympathy. How about getting a shooting party together? I hasten to add I am an amimal lover but there are just too many deer around here and the ones I've seen are very thin despite eating their way through my garden! Hope you like the deciduous Camellias which I don't think will recover (4 of those) and the golden Yew is now affectionately known as Bart Simpson due to having a similar hair cut. Who said yew was poisionous?..not to deer it ain't.

 

No they are not MF which is the problem. Add to that a deer farm about 5 miles away which has escapees and you end up with herds of deer which are neither controlled or looked after. Bad for the likes of me and the deer.

 

I must be the only one that leaves my gate open in hope the Deer will pop in ? Have to admit to loving them and it makes my day when out and I catch a quick glimpse
