Washington Pronghorn *update, fawns*
« on: July 01, 2018, 06:57:17 PM »
So are they pronghorn or antelope? Who cares, if they're in Washington they're awesome.
This guy might not be a trophy in Wyoming, but I was pretty excited to come across this buck with a doe yesterday morning.

I look every time I'm traveling the dry side.  Yet to see one, but anxious to do so.  So cool to have them doing well.

There seem to be a small number of them south of Prosser. I have seen a couple of fawns this year.

The buck I photographed at the start of this thread had always been with a doe. I kept hoping to see a fawn with her, but assumed she just didn't get pregnant this season, well today I found her with twins. Now, if she can just keep them away from predators.

that is cool. Lived in Burns, Or in the 70's and saw them all the time down there. They are fun to watch and quite amazing to see how fast they can run.

Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.
