Title: First Fawn I've seen this year.
Post by: Brushbuster on June 24, 2017, 09:30:06 AM: Look who stopped by for breakfast this morning. Mom & youngin looking good. Too bad she only had one.

I was cutting hay and she came running out of the woods about 1000 yards away and ran almost right up to me. Just a few yards away from the swather she coaxed her fawn out of the waste high alfalfa and escorted it out of the hayfield to some tall grass where I don't cut. I would have found that fawn in 3 more rounds and it wouldn't have ended well for the fawn, it was still wobbly legged.

Never seen that happen before

Wow amazing experience!! :tup:

I've been seeing some healthy deer this year. It looks like it may be a good year to stay on the wetside & chase blacktails. But oh no. I'll drive hundreds of miles to eastern MT & WY this year. Nobody said I was the sharpest tool in the shed. :chuckle:
