Title: Fawns are out
Post by: CarbonHunter on June 06, 2024, 07:29:55 PM: This little guy is waiting for mama to return. And I’m a prisoner in my house waiting for her to come and get him.

Yours is obeying instructions.....lie there and be still. My pair took off like they were fully grown. Assume the doe can pick up their scent trail. Odd that she would leave him in a driveway......few years ago, I saw one in a narrow ditch next to a road where lots of cars and people walking dogs pass close by.

On my evening walk yesterday, I passed within 10' of 4 nice bucks that looked like they'll all be at least 3 points. They couldn't care less that I was there. I've petted them in the past :chuckle:

There was no risk to the fawn at that part of my driveway.
