This Year’s Deer Visitors.

Fauna March 24th, 2008

The deer in the backyard have been less visible this year than last. We’ve seen their tracks, but haven’t actually seen them. Not until this past Saturday.

I managed to grab my video camera and shoot a couple of minutes of footage. I got some really nice close ups. Unfortunately, my camera decided to malfunction during the video download and so I only got the first 30 seconds or so of what I shot. The really nice close ups aren’t in the 30 seconds.

The footage includes a shot of the deer feeder that we bought a short while ago.

    Now that’s just cool… well not the snow part – but the deers. I’d love to be able to just see them wandering around my backyard. How much snow did you get?? Please don’t send it down to Toronto!

    We got about 4cm of snow overnight. Much of it is melting under the sun though.

    Deer can be a bit of a problem if they’re wandering around your house in the winter. They love shrubs…

    Um, apparently it did snow here… but I was asleep for it so I had no idea… d’oh!

    Wandering around your house? You mean outside right? Because I’d say it would be a problem if they were wandering around inside your house… hehehe

    Heh, yeah outside :-)

    The only time they are inside the house is when they are in the freezer.
