Deer Caught in the Act!

It had to happen eventually. Here is visual proof that our local suburban deer does in fact eat from the bird feeder. She brought along a couple of trainees today!

This is the same mature doe that has been eating from our backyard feeder for a few years now. She is obviously trying to teach her two fawns from last spring how to live well in the suburbs by taking advantage of existing food sources.

After this photo was taken one of the little ones came right up to our deck and looked in the window. Possibly hoping for an invitation to dinner?
