Twin partially albino fawns
« on: February 06, 2009, 07:57:34 PM »
I took these pictures today of what appear to be twin fawns. The one has a lot of white on it, but the other doesn't have near as much (only little patches on its back legs). I'd be sweet if both of these little buggers were bucks. Cool to see anyway.

Well turns out we saw the same deer then. Piebald, is that what that color phase is called?

Oh yes, deer still packing headgear. And I've spent a considerable amount of time in that area and those deer a new to me too. Goes to show I guess you never know when deer are gonna show up...could happen just as easy with a monster during the season.

Yeah I saw that big bull quite some time back. Haven't seen him in a while. Quite an odd sighting I thought.

RoughEye, I talked to Dean and John the neighborhood on Hwy 10 between Taylor rd and Throp. They have seen 3 Cougars hanging out for two weeks now. They are mostly on Train track by Yak river. Some time across North of Hwy 10 where Old Water Drilling area also  under the powerline, Probablly need ask Tang's property permit to hike up hill. Help your self..  ;)
I noticed whole deer moving really stranger lately No wonder why...

 :chuckle: If you could sit top of bridge waitting and put Distrass Rabbit or something over 200 yards on little side away from train rail. u could see everywhere moving around open area. It would be really Easy to shoot from top.  ;) hopefully train didnt come.  :o

Their are 4 color variations for deer.  Listed in the order or rarity they include:

Natural
Piebald
Albino
Melanistic.

Natural: The average color of any deer.

Piebald:  Deer lacking some pigment of white hair

Albino:  Solid white deer lacking all pigment.  Nose, inside of ears, skin, hooves, etc are pink.  If their is any color other than White or Pink it is a Piebald

Melanistic is an over abundant of pigmet.  Making a deer darker in color.  Sometimes lacking white belly and throat hair.  Some deer will be jet black.
