Subject: [NatureNS] Deer with a liking for sunflower seeds
My one bird feeder has been going empty overnight. I've seen deer =
tracks beside it, but not until this evening was I able to watch a doe =
and her two yearlings feeding directly out of the feeder. They seem to =
have developed a liking for sunflower seeds over the winter.

Today at Mahone Bay a flock of about 185 common redpolls at a feeder =
with a ton of European starlings was a treat to watch. =20
