Rose is Rose by Don Wimmer and Pat Brady for April 18, 2023

Three deer, two adults and a half grown fawn, visited our back yard last week. They stayed all day until my son went out to put the garbage cans out, and then they jumped the fence and hedge into the next yard. Looked very much like this deer.

What will the deer do next? Follow a moose into a hospital?

At least no one has started singing “Doe a Deer, a female Deer…..”

Get them nice and plump, I have my license already,3 seasons, bow and arrow, shot gun and rifle and I need a 4 point buck in each of the first two and a either sex for rifle to fill my freezer.

Uh huh. Not so nice when there are too many in the area and they eat everything planted unless 5 to 6 foot fences have to be installed around beds. The danged things even eat plants that Rutgers University claims deer never eat.

Meemaw is the BEST:)

I like Meemaw.

Remember wrist rockets? Sling shots with an arm brace to get more power? My friend and I used to launch pool chlorine tablets into the air, knowing they would dissolve and kill the grass where they landed in the neighbor’s yards. One time we did it, and my neighbors were outside, and we just missed his wife! He came through the trees separating the yards, and I saw him and threw my slingshot aside. He came over and screamed at my friend!

Just as long as they don’t use the “facilities” while dining.

I hate these kinds of “cute” comics. The Dept of Wildlife have a saying, “A fed deer is a dead deer.” The tamer and less afraid of humans a deer becomes the more likely they are to walk fearlessly out in the road and meet a very ugly end. And often injure or kill a hapless human driver.

I’ve had cats, possums and racoons show up. Now I see skunks all the time.
