    Keep feeding them and that will change.

    Some years ago, I went to the ACC Tournament in Charlotte, and we went by an office park complex to grab some sandwiches ....of course they build the offices clustered around a very nice, sizable pond, then wonder why ALL the walkways are covered with goose crap...(d'oh!)....then I note a woman on the edge of the pond who has two tools at her disposal: 1) a border collie type dog, and 2) a remote controlled electric boat...so I chatted her up, and she gave me her card, "Goose Busters."
    Office parks pay her to get rid of the geese in their ponds...first she sends the dog swimming at the geese, which gets most of them to fly away...but there are always some stubborn ones, and geese can be rather aggressive when provoked, so when the dog fails, she sends the boat at them.

    I only feed them very intermittently now that we have milder winters...we have just the right number now, but you're right, too much food = too many deer.

    The reloading happened at 12:37pm today. You can take the slider back to then to watch the nice old man filling everything up.

    Here is another view of the same scene that gives you a wider picture of things:

    Why are you wasting time here when you could be wasting it by listening to the latest episode of the DBR Podcast?

    Really cool moment at 14:47 when something spooks the deer and the all go running... except one small one that sticks around for about 45 seconds before he too takes off, taking most of the turkeys with him.

    Could be coyotes. They were looking in the direction the coyotes have come from each time (twice) I've seen them. Once, a big buck attacked the 'yote and ran him off.
