At it again!

It was a nice sunny day down here in Georgia so I decided to talk a stroll up to the street to see what I could find to chat about. I see the 8 Ligustrum bushes we planted 2 years ago are still green and growing. One day they will hide the ugly from next door. The fence, the 2 broken trampolines, the ever growing pile of brush, the rusted broken shed and cars. Lets just say, yard people, they are not.
Upon a closer look, two of the ligustrums do not look so healthy.
Hum, why don't they look like the other ones which are lush with green color? I know we have had a drought since planting them but the Saint and I have done a great job with watering them when needed. A mystery that we will have to ponder a bit. Okay not a mystery to me but maybe to you. So lets continue on strolling about.
Lets move on to the Semi-Formal Flower Garden shall we? Ah, more pretty green all winter long from the Japanese Loquat. Lets move in closer and see if there could be one nice smelling flower still hanging around.
Oh my goodness! What has happened to my lovely Loquat?
Why can't you furry stinkers be happy with the corn we provide you? Why do you always have to find something to nibble on that aggravates me? The Loquat has been with us for about 5 years and never touched by the deer before now. We have 2 Ligustrums in the back yard for about 4 years now and they are in the pathway of the deer. Again, they have never been touched them! I just do not understand the crazy deer but they do seem to keep me on my toes.
Poor Loquat. Where is my Deer Spray? Looks like the deer are AT IT AGAIN, In the Garden...

Note: I will be out of net for a bit (thank goodness for Scheduled postings) but will check in here when possible. Everyone have a great weekend!
