They seem to enjoy the blocks, visit daily, and even the fawns partake as the elders allow. I have them scattered a bit to prevent territorial disputes; unless related by blood, only one deer at a time per block. I have added more blocks this year, and the visitors have fully responded in kind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"394\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/schierlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/2024_0912_Img1.jpg?resize=525%2C394&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2495\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/schierlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/2024_0912_Img1.jpg?w=1020&amp;ssl=1 1020w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/schierlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/2024_0912_Img1.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/schierlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/2024_0912_Img1.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are ones I recognize now. The mother with twin fawns, half their spots now gone. The large eight point buck with the black circular marking on his right shoulder.
