Title: First fawn of the year
Post by: lokidog on May 26, 2012, 10:35:43 PM: Heard our first fawn of the year calling for momma in the back yard this evening. Tried to get out and find it for some pics, but it quit calling before we got close.

Found this little guy while checking cameras Monday. He was 50 feet from the camera and I still didn't have any pics. I had my 2 year old son on my shoulders and almost stepped on him. Cute little fella for sure.
