'A few days before the end of feeding season an otter showed up at the pond and Richard zoomed in on it with the distant ptz camera. That Otter was quite hungry and stuck around for awhile. I actually didn\'t get to record it all but I think this is most of it. PLEASE NOTE that I am not associated with the pantry. I am just an avid viewer of their content. They have a bird feeder camera that livestreams 365 days a year so please go check that out. Here is information on Richard\'s food pantry: The Brownville Food Pantry For Deer feeds approximately 400-500 pounds per day of native oats (local) to help sustain the white-tailed deer population through rough winters here in central Maine. Feeding happens daily around 09: 00 (9 AM) Eastern Standard Time starting December 16 and continues to the beginning of April. These are wild deer and this is not a deer farm. Some of the deer have been coming for more than 10 years including a piebald deer with more white markings than a normal white-tailed deer. At times there are 100 to 200 deer at the pantry. Wild turkeys also come and eat the native oats along side the deer. At times you may see up to 100 wild turkeys at once. There is no Chronic Wasting Disease, or CWD in wild deer in Maine. Please dont complain about it in chat. These deer are all very healthy and there has never been any type of disease spread among these deer. This \"Yarding\" of deer happens in Maine every winter, even if they were not being fed.
