    Here is one of the bucks that live behind my parents house in the suburbs. We are an oasis of 10 acres of woods surrounded by dense residential; the deer back there are not fearless like most suburban deer. We just moved in two years ago and I plan to grow these bucks (if I can keep them here during the rut) for a few years before hunting back there. Going up to my big land tomorrow, more pics to come.

    Those are actually two different bucks, as I'm sure you can all see. There is one doe (who is pregnant), and those two bucks. Hoping to increase their numbers. I believe I'm doing a good job supplementing their food and providing them with minerals, something they probably haven't been able to find in abundance on such a small lot.
