With the warm weather and the grass growing I've noticed my deer are eating a lot of cool-season grasses.  Especially at night when I'm driving.
What are your deer feeding on?

I killed one a couple weeks ago and it was full of hedge apple.

Wild apples. This was a big crop year here and there's many trees still holding some.

acorns are still dropping here. We had a wet summer and no frost or cold weather so far.

Green grass and pumpkins from Halloween we threw into our rubbish pile.

I have no clue. We had a really bad mast. Like almost no acorns. If they don't go to a field somewhere they are eating browse n it's going to be a rough winter on them. The deer I got had very little fat reserve.

Soy beans and corn in the harvested fields.

The one I got this year was full of corn. Think it was out of the neighboring property's feeder!   :)

Browse, lots of green.  They're in the picked corn fields but mainly for the grasses.  Caught one bedded up the other day after I watched it cruise along some honey suckle.

I'm watching anything with new growth.

Not sure.  Watched a button buck pulling something out from under oak leaves last night.  Looked pale green yellow, so I am assuming old fobs covered by leaves. Our acorn mast crop was spotty, and most have already been eaten.  Apples were good, but likewise becoming limited. Almost no agriculture, so browse and whatever else the can piece together.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
