We all know the importance of keeping deer fed throughout the year. I was reminded of this when taking my oldest son out rabbit hunting a couple weeks ago.
This 1st picture is of my Winter Rye plot. Notice very few tracks behind him. This was a couple days after a decent accumulation of snow. Note - I ran out of Radish or I would have put some down when I planted this mix.
The 2nd picture is of the Brassica plot. Even though you can see the tremendous amount of tracks, the picture doesn't do justice of just how used it is. While the tops of the Radish and Turnips are long gone, the deer are still devouring the bulbs buried under the snow. History tells me that by the time I'm ready to plant a cover crop here in the Spring, this plot will be depleted.
The last picture is the result of our afternoons trek through the deep snow. His 1st rabbit! :)
