Deer 4, Birds 0

Mother Nature can be cruel!  I planted about a dozen sun flower plants to generate seeds for the birds. (mostly because I am too cheap to buy bird food at Lowes).  This is the lone survivor.  It's been mowed down 4 times by the local deer. As you can see, it's a persistent little cuss.  It is trying very hard to generate some leaves and ultimately flowers and seed for the birds.  Theresa! Go fetch my rifle!!

Perpetual Deer food!
