Coming out in daylight they must be getting hungry. We feed them about 200# of corn every winter it seems to keep them away from the shrubs. After eating this deer came right up to the back porch and passed within 5' of the windows. I didn't get that photo because I was writing this post. This photo was taken full telephoto through two panes of glass. Image1 by tsebmj, on Flickr
That's just a little guy! I still haven't seen any deer. The snow in the surrounding fields is SO deep they must be staying in the bush.
The deer appears little but it was full grown. The bird feeder in front of it is about 5' off the ground.
