Gone8to1248 158 Report post Posted December 11, 2007 I've been sitting here at my desk for the past hour with 18 deer right outside my window feeding on the acorns that fill my yard and my cat sitting on the counter playing cat and mouse with a small doe at the window! The doe is actually putting her nose up against the window and my cat keeps try to bat her nose thru it! My yard around the house looks like a herd a buffalo went thru the thing from all the pawing in the snow digging up the acorns. I have deer everyday here but normally not this many at one time right up against the house. I've only seen one small buck standing farther out on the hill about 35 yards away and by himself this mornning. I'm sure you have heard of Bed &Breakfast places, well maybe I should start a Deer & Breakfast place. I'll rent out spots at my kitchen table and serve breakfast while your hunting from my kitchen. When the deer you want comes in range the window will pop open, you take the shot and then go back to finishing your breakfast! Maybe I could do something for the Turkey hunters also! Like set lawnchairs out in the yard and when a flock of them come in to feed you just zap one of them! Unfortunately I don't allow any hunting on my property nor do my nieghbors. We have made the area a sanctuary because we enjoy having all the wild animals around here. Bernie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TerryK Report post Posted December 11, 2007 That's pretty cool Bernie. Too bad you didn't video the deer/cat interaction, that would have been priceless! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest stumped Report post Posted December 11, 2007 Hey Bernie, I agree it would have been great if you could have taped the deer and cat interaction... that would have been so cool. I also think it is great that you are able to enjoy the wildlife at your home without worrying about someone coming by and taking one of them away. I would love to be able to enjoy something like that but unfortunately I live in the city and we never get to see them. Keep enjoying. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Wes Report post Posted December 11, 2007 Stumped, If your in TBay, take a drive to mission island. You'll see a FEW deer in the city. The wife and I saw 56 yesterday. There are a couple nice 10 pointers over there. Just drive slow, they don't move out of the way for anyone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe someday I will post some of my best up for everyone to see. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snowball 75 Report post Posted December 11, 2007 Here is a video I made this summer over on the Island (here in Thunder Bay). Sorry, no sound. I had to delete the sound, the radio was playing while I was filming and there were concerns about rights to music. http://revver.com/video/488494/affiliate/1...er-viewing-101/ Regards,Snowball Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
