Today's Cellar and Neatorama Image of the Week is this photo found by Cellar user xoxoxoBruce, captioned:
Dinner Time in Eagle River, Wisconsin. These people living in Northern Wisconsin put some corn out in the dead of winter to sustain the area deer. When I said the deer up here were as thick as cats and dogs, I wasn't far off. Wisconsin community of Eagle River.

We bought our place the winter of 2006 and fed the deer during the winter (our yard looked like the picture above). Corn was $3 to $4 per bag. I guess the deer are going to have to fend for themselves this winter at $10 to $12 per bag!!! Yikes!!
