Default RE: Deer in the Mulberries

I've seen them about 30 + ft tall. Usually they take the form and size of an old standard apple tree. If there's one downside to them it's that the leaves and fruit are so heavy that the branches weight down and break. I even have a summer resident that trives on them, "Wilbur" the groundhog moves from his normal hole to the crawlspace under my sauna. It's only a few few from there to a steady diet for 1-2 months of all the mulberries that he can eat. Of course Wilbur isn't quite as famous as the groundhog near my hunting property "Wiarton Willie". He had a pretty good weather predicting record until last year. He was soooo wrong that they were talking about roasting him.
