We have a community lake that includes gardens, ponds, bayous, waterways. dams and fishing areas.

We saw deer on the same spot several times when we were walking in the garden area, either:
- early in the morning
- or late at night
The animals seem love persimmons and their leaves. It is said that when these deer return to their herd with persimmon breath, the others will follow them back on the spot or even to your house to feast and fertilize.
I have no idea whether it's true!

Uma boa visita dos veados, eu gosto de caqui, desejo uma ótima semana bjs.
ReplyDeleteLindos ciervos hay que cuidarlos. Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteNot exactly, but where we have a little house high in the mountains, where we usually spend some of our summers, they do come looking for food and fruit. In the winters, when there are far fewer people, they are the area's inhabitants, both deer and wild boar.

Interesante conducta de los siervos frente a esa fruta que desconozco: asumo que les atrae su olor
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo. Carlos
Love seeing the cute deer! The fishing pier looks nice.
ReplyDeleteTake care, have a great day and a happy weekend!
Deers do not follow each other based on the scent of someone's breath or eaten fruit, so I think this is a myth. Deer do use their sense of smell and scent trails to follow each other or smell danger, but not via a special "persimmon breath."

ReplyDeleteLovely photos!
ReplyDeleteDeer and persimmons make such a sweet pairing.
Whether the ‘persimmon breath’ tale is true or not, it’s fun to imagine.
You have persimmons growing in your yard. Interesting about the deer and their persimmon breath idea.
ReplyDeleteAmazing captures and interesting information!
