What a peaceful looking ride. Nice.
Spring is slowly coming to the Ohio valley. I have been taking lots of turkey pictures. They like to congregate in my yard and to strut, establish pecking order, gobble and mate. Nothing is blooming yet but my wife's tulips 10 feet from the front door were starting to grow but the deer find them delicious and nibble them back down to the ground.

Worst winter for deer in years, hard to put a number on it yet, in the tens of thousands in damages to shrubbery. We have spent the last 2 weeks removing shrubs and still have at least 2-3 weeks left. I have never seen it this bad in the 40 years in business.

I have pictures of them eating cedar bark strips and pine needles I took a few weeks ago.

Only a day ago I idly flicked on the TV and without paying much attention found myself watching an old "Homeland" (I think) episode. The protagonist has a backyard with what looks like a small patch of tulips. A deer takes an interest in the tulips. I won't go into detail regarding the fate of the deer, but at the time I thought "Oh yeh, deer wandering into suburban back yards. Come on, pull the other one". Up around Cairns way the occasional salt water crocodile wanders into backyards, but deer? No way
. Well I live and learn!
Cheers.

I didn't know salties ate tulips.
As you say, one lives and learns.
