Does are starting to drop fawns, however they are not yet chasing spikes out of their area. That will occur when they get in to the pre rut. This ensures that momma doesn't get bred by her own offspring.

The movement now is to birthing grounds and to food sources. As they drop fawns you will see an increased movement as they need to produce milk and will need almost double their normal intake to keep up with the demand of keeping mom nourished and producing milk for baby. This is a great time of year to spray your ornamentals with deer repellent if you have deer issues like we do here in Connecticut.

Bucks will be feeding heavy now too, as they try to build antlers. It's a busy time of year in the whitetailworld!

You will also see an increase of beavers, porcupines and raccoons this time of year.
