I've heard this stuff called old man's beard. Deer eat this stuff all the time. If they find a tree with this stuff growing on it they will chow down as if it were candy



Anyone else know of any other unusual food sources?

I read before that deer will eat dead fish and other seafood on the shores of rivers and lakes. Also, they will eat baby birds and chipmunks that have fallen out of nests.

Ive never seen it happen though,

That stuff reminds me of Spanish Moss like you see down south.

I've been told they'll eat poison oak leaves, around here....but I haven't seen that, either.

Tes, that is moss. Down here in Florida, deer will definatly eat it, they love it. If a bad storm comes through, deer, as well as cattle will head to downed trees with moss, and moss blown to the ground. One of the oddest things I have witness, was a doe and 2 yearlings stripping a 6 ft Marajuana bush, of all leaves and buds they could reach in Nebraska. No, the marajuana was of the wild type. It was everywhere and gave my allergie hell!
