Just an FYI to anyone interested. I haven't seen the deer in my back yard (Southern NH) for over a month and I began to get a little concerned with the snow and cold we have been getting. Anyway, this morning there were at least seven deer (all does I think) that were bedded down within 30 yds of the house. Five were adult size deer and there were also two smaller ones. All these deer appeared to be in pretty good shape. There is about 18 inches of snow still on the ground and the temp was in the single numbers. Hopefully they will look as good when I see them in another month or so...
