Spring is definitely on the way! Yes, when it comes to deer, you want all the tricks you can collect.
For the first time we are seeing deer tracks in the snow all over our yard. Will look into this seminar as we do not want the damage they can do. On the bright side Anthony spotted the first robin yesterday 3/5/16 checking our feeders and two weeks ago I spotted Blue Birds again at our feeders. This is the earliest we have seen a Robin.
