late last summer i dumped like 3 dolloar store bags of mixed bird seed in my area at a time up till mid oct and had deer and turkey in on it pulling and eating at the stuff that grew from it. so i am gonna give it a try again this year but start seeding in a week or 2

well deercook shot my doe open day in november when it was by one of the bird seed plots not sure of all the plants in the seed i know there is sun flower and it looks like clover and some kind of sproute(the hippe one) the deer seem to like that one but as a whole i think the mix might bring other animals in to that eat the seeds of some of the flowers also noticed some fox prints and yote prints so they was more likly after some thing in the plot. should put up a trail cam after the seed starts to grow this spring and see what comes in to the plants grown and what might be comeing after the plant eater..
gonna see if i can get some wild seed for forage and spread also. by the water spots(but use native plants i dont want any non native plants).
