RE: Sunshine Sketches From Fernwood ~ My Wednesday Walk
Fernwood looks like a really tranquil place to live. I bet those cute deer could eat a lot of those gardens up! I have a friend who lives in Victoria and she is always complaining about the deer eating her roses!
Yes, it's a nice area and we can walk downtown from here. The deer eat so many flowers, it's true. You should see them jump over fences. I would have thought they would need a running start to clear a six-foot fence, but no. Standing beside a fence, the deer can just sort of flow up and over - it's really cool to see!
But not so cool when they are eating your roses! LOL They are really beautiful creatures.
If you're serious about keeping flowers, there is always wire mesh - I see a lot of it being used. Or you can just take your chances! :)
Think I would take my chances. I hate wire mesh and chainlink fences. I prefer letting the deer have a nibble or two...
Wisconsin also has a large deer population.
They venture in close to town and do the same here. Most people expect that, its nature!
Have to be careful driving for sure! They are quick and unpredictable.
