I consider this a personal insult too. I gave them free reign over the cover crop all winter- wheat, clover, and turnips, and not a single visit that I could see. Crowder peas mixed in the green peas is a delicacy in my house, and apparently for the deer as well. Strange as it seems, I usually get 1 drive by from the deer each year, never to see them again the rest of the season. Hopefully this trend holds.
