Snow cover means slim pickin' for deer population
Saturday, February 28, 2015
John and Leveda Banken, whose home is just north of Dexter's city limits, are accustomed to seeing a few deer around their property, but nothing to compare with the numbers seen in recent days, following the snow and ice storm. The Bankens have witnessed as many as 21 deer at a time gathered in their yard this week, munching on the bark of fallen branches in the snow.
