I had noticed that the little bird feeder tray was unusually clean in the mornings and thought…raccoons.
Nope. Deer.
One afternoon I was walking across the studio close to the outside door and a mere five feet from me were three deer at the feeder.
I’ve seen these characters passing through quite often, but I had no idea that they’d discovered the little feeding tray.
I thought the little buck was ADORABLE, look at it sniffing the rose bush.
But what is this?? NO! NO!
Well darn it. Now I know who ate all of my rose bushes. 😞 Mystery solved, disappointment activated.
It’s a dream of mine to live in a place where I have deer in my backyard; I’d love to be able to just sit and watch them.

It’s a double-edged sword. They’re so sweet, but that’s because of all the roses they eat.
