    What is holding his interest so much?

    There were four in the yard all at one time. A button buck is a young buck deer usually less than a year old that his antlers are just beginning to form.

    Your new hedge trimmers look like they're the ideal ones to have CK. They have the added bonus of being great fertilizers as well and they're completely organic. ;)

    Several deer made our yard their home for several weeks and saved us from trimming the bushes. I'm not sure however, if they did a professional job. I may have to have them back to finish the job. :)

    Whenever we have snow cover for an extended period of time,they come up and start eating the ground cover. Last year they did a pretty good job of trimming.

    Hedge trimmers :snicker: ....That had me chuckling.
    But what a pleasure to see such an animal. It is like having your own private "free-range zoo" outside your window.

    It looks cold there, Capt'n.
