INTO THE WOODS by Lynn Gardner

( vee, I wouldn't call them vermin, but they can be problematic. However I look at it a slightly different way. I live in a wooded area and believe that we share the earth with the creatures. Unfortunately deer have begun to feel less threatened by man....is it genetic? They have less innate fear of the scent of humans and often will "visit" homes regularly where food is offered ! Some will even approach a human out of curiosity. Many times I've turned around while in the garden weeding and been almost face to face with a curious doe ! They are beautiful, graceful, peaceful creatures who can eat amazing quantities of rhododendron and other evergreens and empty an unfenced garden plot ! )

Vee, to me vermin are things like rats. :) Yoyobon, we have a problem in our area with black bears. People leave their garbage cans outside and the bears get into them to get food scraps.

Donna

Donna,

Yes we also have black bears ! One afternoon I looked out my bedroom door ( it's french style and full glass so the view was full on) and there was a BIG bear walking across the deck just 6 feet from the door. What concerns me is that they are more than able to break through any first floor window should they wish to. In the Adirondacks they will come right into a camp through the door and ransack the kitchen searching for food !
