Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Birth of a deer camp

I'm obviously hunting the wrong area. There's a house on the way to work that has a big bird feeder out. With the weather closing in this morning, I figured their bird feeder would be busy. Man was it ever. I stopped for a minute and counted 23 deer, 16 turkeys and lord only knows how many pheasants under the feeder. The turkeys rule the roost-the deer were milling around trying to get at the feed and the turkeys kept running them off. One big old doe had finally had enough of that and ran in and scattered the turkeys. It was pretty comical. Those critters knew that snow was coming, and they were really putting on the feed bag!
