a fortune.

*I* wanted to eat them (lovely in a salad).

So I fixed up some cayenne-spiked spray with enough olive oil to help it stick a bit. LOL - the next morning I went out and there was a lily blossom bit off and clearly spit out. I don't remember what happened after that -- I doubt I made a dent in the clientele for my daylilies bar, though.

African iris and Louisiana iris have done very well. I have some paperwhites that we found a clump of when we purchased the farm - I've been dividing and replanting for forty years and they are all over the place. I have some daffodils but keep missing buying more in the fall.

I do have a few daylilies, but they are in the upper terrace next to the bedroom where the deer don't go. Anywhere else and they would be gone!

so that stag can be recorded if taken by a hunter, or ends up as roadkill, or is incident reported to fish & game biologists by the shrubbery owner so biologists they can track deer range and movements within the local habitat.

I should know that, in this area you mostly only see those on cattle. Wildlife studies often use collars, bears get ear "jewelry". Makes sense for a lifetime indicator, it works on cattle after all. And I bet that GPS "chips" could fit in one of those too, better than a collar for such purposes.
