We have had unusual amount of moisture this spring. The grass is now over waist tall. I was going to knock it down for fire season. Hooked the mower up to the tractor and my 3rd pass around the pasture I flushed out a fawn. :yike: It hadn't been out of the chute very long. Maybe the size of a cocker spaniel if that. I thought I could get a photo of it and I wanted to see if I had hit it with the tractor. I found it and when I got my phone out it flushed again. I'm done pestering it. Got the mower in the places I had already mowed and when I turned down back to the house I had a pair of them in the grass. So I just put up the equipment for a while.

I hope we don't turn off as dry as last year. Could be another bad fire season if it does.

Grass is tall enough I can just see the does ears and the top of their backs.

I do have an overabundance of crows, but that's the biggest crow I have seen. It also has a different head than a crow.

Not a Golden eagle. Golden eagles have white on the underside of their tails with black tips. And their heads are not that smooth.

What is it then? not a hawk as far as I can tell, not a Juvi Bald Eagle as it is not mottled.

It is large...
