They Came Back

After a brief visit by Hungry Girl and Barbecue this morning, things were quiet at the feeding station for a while.

Then it got real busy, all at once!

Mama and the twins came over, then Hungry Girl and Barbecue came back.  Mama, the twins and Barbecue ate peacefully together for a while, then something happened, and Mama chased Barbecue off.

The feed hadn’t been topped up when the outside cat stuff got done, so with 5 deer hanging around, I decided I needed to get some out there.  I startled the remaining deer away in the process and, for a while, I thought I might have chased them off for the day.

I was wrong.

There are actually 5 deer in this photo.  You can just see the 5th one through the trees in the back.

They all stayed for quite a while, and every now and then, they would chase each other. Even the twins got in on it!

In the end, I think they all got a share of the feed.
