WOODSAZ Report post Posted May 17, 2009 I was actually making the kids lunch and looked out to see a few Antelope out across the road. Got my glasses and saw a descent buck with them so I grabbed the camera and put the telephoto lens on to hopefully get some descent pics. They all had bedded down so I stayed low and got to about 100 yrds of them when I saw they all stand up. I snapped a few pics but they were still a ways off so I just started walking slowly towards them. They wouldnt let me get any closer than about 90-100 yards and would jog back aways and turn around and stare at me. I had gotten to the point were they had been laying down and figured the show was over considering I wasnt getting any closer. Then I looked only a few feet away and saw they two tiny sets of ears stickin out of the grass. I was actually about 6 feet from them when I took the pics. I got my pics and slipped out, and started walking back, shakin my head appreciating an awesome experiance. Got back to house and saw mama come back and swoop them up.

BML Report post Posted May 18, 2009 Hey WOODSAZ, Awesome pictures man! I have actually perfected a technique when it comes to antelope fawns. I haven't been able to get twins right next to each other yet, but I have lots of cool photos of singles. This fawn actually walked up to my while I was snapping some photos and licked my pant leg!!!! No kidding either. I think he got confused. Not trying to hijack your thread. Just thought I would add a couple similar photos. Thanks for sharing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
