Deer Heaven

Nothing makes my men happier than seeing big deer & elk. Well, I can't do much about seeing elk in Green Bay but the deer have found heaven on earth at the City's compost facility (it's located within the City's wildlife sanctuary). As you'll see from the photos, there's no hunting pressure here and the deer are well fed.

Every night at dusk Deer come out in droves to feed off discarded garden material and apples spectators are throwing to them. Yes, spectators. You wouldn't believe the number of people who congregate to see the deer. Having been one of 'those people' I can say it's quite the site to see how big these deer are. Jackson and Chris took grass clippings there Monday night and stayed to enjoy the show. We'll be going back, grass clippings or not.


This photo has something for everyone: Deer for Dad and Jackson and a transmission line for Mom!
