Pa fawns

[Lx lungbuster7]

While turkey hunting this morning I saw a doe standing out on a powerline and as i got closer she did not want to move and then I saw something i first thought was a small cat but it stood up and i knew exactly what it was. It was small fawn couldn't of been more than a day or two old so i backed out and left them alone. Then in another area when i was leaving at 12:00 i saw a big doe come bounding out into the field and i could see something chasing behind her. I put up the binos and it was another fawn but much bigger than the first one I saw, it must be at least a week old. Also on Saturday I saw the first buck in velvet his main beams were already as long as his ears. I just wanted to know has any one else been seeing any fawns or bucks.

It's that time of the year again. Have been lucky enough to have walked up on sleeping fawns the past two years in a row. One ina patch of goldenrod in my woods, the other out in a hay field. Hope to keep the streak alive this May. Usually see a few fawns each spring, but really enjoy seeing them up close like that.

Might've seen one that was very fresh, a few years ago.

Parked the truck in a favorite spot near camp, where we've always glassed the valley from, for deer. Saw a doefaracross the valley with the binocs, put the spotting scope on the window and realized she was licking a fawn. She spent quite a bit of time at it, then moved off. The fawn followed, but could barely walk.
