Good fawn survival
« on: March 20, 2019, 05:46:12 PM »
Threw a little corn out and the herd came running.  Quick count was mid twenties but did count 9 healthy last year fawns. At least 4 of the matures were bucks (could see the shed horn scars). Nice to see, but wish I was seeing more whitetails

Yes I am kinda fuzzy and bony, but alive.  And by the way, leave me alone, I have things to eat.

I've looked at around 400 deer the last 3 weeks in Chelan, Okanogan and Douglas Counties.  Looks like good body condition on the vast majority and good fawn survival.  Did see one fawn on death's door in Okanogan County, it had already been abandoned by its group.  As has been stated, I wish there were more but it's been a good winter here.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

So when deer switch from woody fibre browse to fresh green grass, they can develop severe green grass diarrhea resulting in spring death from dehydration, that is labeled winter kill.  Its not over yet by any means, and I too am seeing deer, but not like in years past.....at least for me, nothing to get excited about.  Mule deer wintering above the lake in their historic winter range are being driven out by view lots.......and these small sample pics of deer are a pathetic reminder of the past.
