Here we have totally appropriate deer behavior, munching on the abundant supply of willow trees that line the creek. This morning both Galen and Ricky were pretty interested in keeping the deer out of our yard, and surprisingly, the deer seemed to take them seriously. At one point, one of the deer even started barking at them. We were inside so we didn’t really get to hear what their bark sounds like. I never thought that deer vocalized much, but Greg told me that they do on occasion, usually to warn their young. Yesterday we picked up some Liquid Fence to spray on the roses. It came highly recommended by a lady who has a wonderful garden, so she should know. We’ll see how it works.
