Finally got pics of the twin fawns

The fawns are out here now. They stay back in the woods until they can run at a good clip. The subdivision is acre + sites, and we are surrounded by a 7500 acre park, so lots of deer. Plenty of food and a lake for water. No hunting.
When I moved here 20 years ago, a single fawn was the norm, now triplets are not unusual, and almost every doe has twins. With no hunting, nothing to stop them.

CUTE!!
Today they came out and were only about 40 ft. from the garden while we were weeding and planting. They are sure active little critters. Racing and chasing each other all around the field.We were laughing and mom did not like that so she hurried them up the field a little farther.
I saw something I've never seen before. Now I know raccoons and cats get along just fine but we had 3 baby coons show up tonight being controlled by a feral female cat that has been around for about 2 years. I guess she adopted the 3 babies as she was treating them like a litter of kittens.
Nice pics. I saw some yesterday across the road from my bro's place.
They are coming out in the daylight a lot lately. Guess they feel secure up here on the hill. As for the jacket, I took it off in the barn before I got the kubota out and it is still out there. We are already up to 82 and I kicked the a/c on when I came in from bush hogging. Want to finish the pasture so I can drop the mower and put the spears on to gather more bales.
Last night was 12 at one time and that did not include the mom and twins. 7 were bucks and 3 were nice ones. This morning I had 4 watching me weed and one was only about 20 ft. from the fence. They are having a field day on the fresh green alfalfa.

Yes, during the Spring there was a Doe with a pair of twins in the meadow overlooked by my place. There are more, and they do tend to come out of the trees, and even, sometimes run past my west fencing, real close. I mean, I have three dogs, but altho very timid, they (the Deer), tend to be a little bit curious also, altho when in curiosity mode they do so from the middle of the meadow. lol
Great pictures muley hon!
