They just keep getting bigger and more numerous
« on: September 04, 2014, 06:05:08 PM »
In the last 2.5 years of our new property in gmu121, we've gone from just does to maybe a spike and a forkie to these guys:



I'm really pleased  :)

Agreed. My frustration was I had the does and I have fawns (3 this year alone) but the bucks just were not visiting my cameras. Thse bucksy are really smart. I'm no expert but its taken these 3 years of steady feeding and lack of disturbance to make them feel safe enough to come to the feeders during the daytime and stay for more than just a few minutes.

Of course they've grown up in the area too. Familiarization.
