Bambi Treats
They are testing my fortitude.  In recent weeks, I have had to spray deer repellant on an almost on a daily basis since the fawns are taste-testing everything.

They are especially  fond of the oriental lilies, green beans, and hostas.  And while they won't eat them, they can't resist putting bite marks in all the largest green tomatoes. And now the little scoundrels are even eating the growning tips off my european Cinderella pumpkins vines!

I have a ethical repulsion against putting my gardens behind tall fences, or &quot;plant prisons&quot; as I call them.  And with many gardens scattered over long distances, electricity is not really an option either.  Therefore, I  have no other option but to soak them in a vile potion that reeks like an Iowa hog lot.

I sprayed earlier today, but an unexpected brief, but intense, rain just washed it all away.  So out again I go to spray everything for a second time, so that hopefully this pretty, pink Oriental lily will still be here to enjoy in the morning, and NOT in Bambi's stomach.

(Also, I think is this a texture by Skeletal Mass, so thank you!)
