We have about 18 or so deer that show up at various times and over 30 turkeys. The deer will eat anything that grows, but they love the cracked corn I put out for the turkeys. Problem is that if the turkeys arrive first then the only thing left for the deer are "snow encrusted bonbons" left by turkeys who do not seem to know that you don't crap where you eat
So far this winter we have gone thru 500 pounds of corn and about 200 pounds of sunflower seed. At night the flying squirrels hit the bird feeders and I have a pair of grey fox that love to clean up what corn has been over looked. They also are in direct competition with the owls who also go after mice and voles looking for leftovers. Don't have any human visitors here, but I do have critters.
