    I was just out walking my 2 dogs and the moon is like a bright beacon. I knew right away the deer would be coming out. Sure enough there were 6 slick heads in my neighbor's backyard. They had come out of the sewer easement and eating her back lawn. I thought the German Shepherd was gonna cry when I wouldn't let him go after them. I do think I heard him use the "F" word when I turn my back though. Lol

    Here in Minnesota during the winter when it is cold the deer show up before dark at the feeder no matter the moon phase.

    I remember growing up in MI on nights with a full moon you could see deer in the field 400 yds away if there was snow on the ground..

    Yep and when it's really cold you can hear every thing better too. With the snow and the bright moon you have a shadow at night.
