Not a hunting story, Just a fun one

I don't really know where to post this thread, and things on here have been slow as always, during the summer doldrums, but I thought some of you might like to see some of what I have to put up with, trying to keep my garden safe. I live in a small town in the far northern part of the communist state of Kalifornia
in a town named Weed. About 45 miles south of the Oregon line. The town is named after the founding father of the town, not the drug. Every day I go out and water my garden, and for about a week now I have seen activity in my garden that I hate. I knew from what I see, that I have a deer problem!
This afternoon when I went out, I happened to see the culprits behind my garage. I went back inside and grabbed my camera, to see if I could get a couple of shots. Following are a couple pics of the deer that have been causing the problems.
He is a 4 point on 1 side and I counted 6 points on the other side. Looking at his face, he has a somewhat of a gray face, indicating he is an older buck. I had to get these shots thru the windows in my garage, to keep from spooking them.

This buck is smaller, a 3x3, and a younger deer.

The deer here are black tail deer. Smaller than the muley's just east of here, and smaller than the whitetail deer. No whitetale deer in my area. I also am being overrun by the Valley quail around my place. These guys have destroyed my lettuce garden this year. Like almost everyone else, I do enjoy the wildlife for the most part, but I can't seem to catch a break!
I like my fresh veggies more!
Just thought some of you would enjoy this too!
