Well, well, well.  What have we here?

Does this look like the remnants of a little rutting going on in my front yard on MY MAGNOLIA TREE???
(Can you tell I’m annoyed?)
Of course, it’s the girls that I’m feeding, and this was the handiwork of the young boys the other night when it was very cold out.
Unfortunately, this means that my Magnolia, should  it live to a nice, ripe age, will simply not have those full, traditional low branches that we love in the structure of the Magnolia.  Mine will look like an fruit tree, instead!  
Oh well.  
Okay, Carol, I’m “embracing” my bucks!
