The enemy has returned

Check out who was roaming around in the backyards the other day! I got a good video of him too - maybe that'll get posted later. Six points - Andy, you interested in driving down to get a snack? Maybe a little deer jerky? (Actually, I don't know for certain that THIS guy was the one who ate one of my strawberry plants...)


And while this picture was taken around the same time, no, they're not playing guard cats and scaring off the deer. They were more focused on the birds at the feeders! (They sure look sinister though, don't they?!)

I'm game... err, rather - he's the game. Honestly - if you were just a little closer - I'd be a good friend and help you out...
Of course - when you are up for Christmas this year - feel free to come on out to the farm... I'll give you some lessons on the "tools of the trade"!
Actually - you guys should come out for an in-person tour!

Oh that sounds really cool! Well, minus the "tools of the trade" tutorial. I've shot birds out of the air and bees off've sunflowers, and every time I've felt guilty afterwards. Not sure I could handle killing a deer when I can just as easily pick up a Hickory Farms summer sausage at the store without the guilt attached! ;-) But otherwise, yeah, next time we're up there we'll get my folks to take us out to the farm... We're staying here this Christmas and my folks are going to my brother and sister-in-laws (grandkids win out every time!), but maybe we'll make it up near Christmas or sometime in January.
