You can do the searches with just BTE also

Interesting - I hadn't heard of that before. It looks similar in some ways to some of the permaculture techniques that a buddy is hoping to start using this year. The theory seems to me to make a great deal of sense (to me at least), and I'm game for trying anything that keeps things simple, low-maintenance, and pesticide-free. I think I'll give this some thought too. This will be my second growing season in my house, so I don't want to drop the garden ball like I did last year!

Automatic Fertilizer Dispensers were switched on tonight at sunset

Is it normal for Elk and Deer to hang out?

No - BUT

There are spots that simply attract animals, we just happen to be one of them

There are two separate herds of Elk that visit us, this is the smaller of the two with about 20 members, the larger one has 50-60.
The Whitetail are part of the resident band, we also have a roaming band of Mule Deer that comes through mostly late night.
We have Moose year round

This is even a more Rare Occurrence and I was very lucky to catch it on camera Deer Moose and Elk all in the same shot




Pretty much explains why we HAVE to have fences around the garden too
