Post by: Frogman on February 20, 2013, 07:05:04 PM
Saw this deer feeding from the neighbor's bird feeder earlier this evening.  Pretty cool!

She looks real healthy for living on bird seed.

Yeah her curvy hips dont really dictate she's been eating out of a deer feeder, do they?
Maybe she's a health nut :shrug:

Probably low fat bird seed.

I've always wondered how animals smell that stuff.
If I buy bird seed with sunflowers in it, I get bluejays from three surrounding counties.
I'f I put out peanut butter blocks, I get woodpeckers from as far as Johannesburg Africa.
And if I buy seed with corn it, I get squirrels.
And thistle draws the cardinals.
Now how they heck do any of them smell that stuff, how do they know it's there? I can see the peanut butter smelling, but seeds? have you ever smelled a seed?
Ever walk into a place and think man o man it smells like seeds in here :doh2:
How did the deer smell those seeds?

They have large nostrils?  Just my guess.

Is that a Coues deer?  I know you have them down in those parts. She is making a concerted effort I must say. :laf:

Coues is the only whitetail sub-species we have in Arizona, no Virginia whitetail or any other sub-species.  Coues have their own place in B&C and only need to be a minimum of 110 to qualify.  I'll post one that went 113.

I did a carving on a knife handle years back for a friend in Arizona, of a Coues buck at his request.  That was the first time I learned of the the "Grey Ghosts".  :laf:
