Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow



We apologize for not blogging in the past few weeks.We are suddenly into the full winter work schedule -- feeding the deer hay each morning, breaking ice to keep water open at least twice a day. We are happy to report that the new shelter is still standing and a windbreak on the west side of the lean-to survived the high winds of the snow storm on Sunday, December 16th. There is ample evidence that the deer have burrowed themselves into the hay in both areas out of the wind and snow.

We've just made an arrangement to have the laneway ploughed whenever necessary, so there should be off-road parking if you want to visit before Christmas or during the holidays.

We wish to thank everyone (in the hundreds!) who has helped the Fallow Deer Reserve this year. You are all very special people. We wish you much joy and peace for the holidays and much abundance in the New Year.
