Shaun_300 Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 My aunt and uncle have been feeding a small herd of deer for the past 10 years or so in the winter months. Some of you may remember me posting some pics before. A couple times a day between 15 and 25 deer come in for a snack, and in the past few years around 20 wild turkeys as well.:clown: My girlfriend and I were up there today so we stopped in after our fishing excursion to watch them come in and eat. At around 4pm he'll go out with the bucket of feed, literally say "come and get it!" and that's exactly what they do. He doesn't lay out tons of feed, just enough for a snack for everyone. All these pics were taken through glass through their kitchen patio door. Heading out with the feed, my camera was just getting warmed up from the cold day outside to the warm inside so this one was a bit blurry. Feeding time Notice the deer in the background like... "are you done yet?":clown: Rest of the pics from the evening They literally come running for their snack Most of the bucks have shed their antlers already, except for this fella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chenango Dave Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Nice Shaun. Have you found any of them sheds around the yard? Where's all the gobblers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted January 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 There was one gobbler in the group, guess he was never in any of the pics though. I haven't been out to look for sheds yet but my uncle took his 4 year old grandson out and they found a set of one of the bucks in the pic, he said they were much bigger than the buck that was still wearing his antlers.

dbHunterNY Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 reminds me of my parent's old house. they didn't feed them, but deer and turkey would come out in the field behind the backyard. awesome pictures shaun! sounds like the sheds found were pretty decent.
