We live on the east side of Kelly Butte. The butte is about seven or so blocks long and basically runs from Centennial to the river with one street to cross on the south end to get to the river. The wild critters can go through the pack and hit the woods south of town or work their way up the greenway along the bike path for a couple of miles. Heck I wouldn’t put it past them to swim the river or use the railroad bridge, follow the tracks and hit the hills on the other side of Glenwood.
Our back yard goes up the hill and the backyards of the lots up the hill go down the hill leaving a fair amount of tree and brush covered ground that the deer can cross to go back and forth. Many of the yards are fenced but ours isn’t. So, we’re part of the deer expressway. And they aren’t too proud to raid the feeders or check out the ground below for what spills over. Please do. The squirrels are such sloppy eaters.
This morning we had a momma and her twins drop by for a visit. I got some half way decent shots through the windows.

I can[t say I've ever heard of deer eating out of a bird feeder, but I guess it makes sense.
Wonderful pics!
Love the shots and the feeding attitude. I too appreciate the clean up from messy squirrels, chipmunks and whomever else stops by! I don't like it when they chomp the new growth on my spring plants, but even while I fuss, I remind myself that everyone has to eat.
