Deer Take Over the Bird feeder in the Back Yard

Info from Licensor: "My wife has MS and doesn't get out much so we set up the bird feeder right outside the family room window so she could watch the birds. The last few winters have had heavy snow and the deer have been wandering into our neighborhood on the edge of town to find more food.

Our backyard is fenced with only one opening that isn't gated. I guess the deer first came to the backyard to eat the aspen trees or whatever they could kick up. Eventually, they discovered the bird feeder. They don't eat much and after a few minutes, they'll wander off into other areas of the yard.

They can't seem to see me through the window. I can stare at them a foot away, or take a video, as the case may be."
