Nice pics-I am fortunate to have them in my yard year round also. I have had as many as 30 when the snow is deep. They come & eat the corn for the squirrells & clean out my bird feeders-I think they like the bird seed better than the birds. They are only a few feet from the door.

It' easy to bait large numbers ofdeerduring the winters here in PA. We have alot of them. I see at least two or three every night out in my back woodlot every night but I prefer not to feed them. Supplemental winter feeding for the purpose of "viewing deer" is selfish and has very little benefit to the deer. Almost every state game or wildlife agency website will have articles discouraging supplemental feeding of deer, particularly in winter. There are numerous reasons, not the least of which is an unnatural concentrating of feeding deer in one area that could led to spread of disease. If you really want to help them in especially rough winters, cut a few preferred young trees or large limbsdown so they can accesstheir natural winter food - browse.

Rob, thanks for the pics! I just had 8 deer in my backyard .... I live near a rarely used cargo train track and I used to have a momma living there, every year seeing her with her babies ... I gues she died of old age or a vehicle got her ...

I think I'd have to go lay in that corn and cover myself up, grab a leg when they started to eat & scare the crap out of them...

They'd forget by October...
