Foraging Deer
Well it's later in the winter and the deer are starting to eat a little closer to the house... i noticed that they have decided to try nibbling on my rhinegold near the back sidewalk. They've never bothered them before and i don't think that they are supposed to like them. But i guess that is about the same as them not liking liriope and chicks n' hens. So i guess the next warm spell i'm going to get out the chicken wire and block off more of my garden. sigh...

Grey & White
it's been extremely cold this past week and today it warmed up... with the warming came the snow. i'll take the snow and its blanketing effect for the garden.
Things still grow in the Winter...
Recently I've noticed that the trees are showing new growth. I did a double take at the paperbark maple the other day... it's silhouette has expanded just like the bradford pears and birch trees. The deer continue to prune the azaleas... and i placed wire cages over some spring bulbs that they found irresistible.
