Blacktail doe with fawn question
« on: July 06, 2011, 06:16:53 PM »
We had 2 yearling bucks frequent our backyard.  This spring, one of our local does had her first fawn in our backyard as well.  Since then, we haven't seen the buck twins, or any other deer for that matter.  I keep the back yard topped off with apples and oats and get 6-10 pics a day of the doe and her fawn.

The question is, when a doe has a fawn, will she chase off all other deer?  I miss the twins  :(
