kwp Report post Posted August 19, 2005 I was out this last weekend and saw a few. Saw one nursing. They're still real little and not yet as active as the adult deer so I imagine that we will be seeing a lot more as they get a little older. Didn't see any that I could confirm as twins but I'm sure there were some. It's real green, with a lot of tall grass and brush in S. AZ right now and it's also wet enough that the deer aren't having to travel very far for water. I would think that all of those things would help the fawns survive their first few months.

BASS Report post Posted August 19, 2005 I saw one fawn with momma up in 6A a couple weeks ago. She didn't seemed to worried about us, and the baby was jumping around playing with her. Then they just walked away, and dropped off into a small canyon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azhuntnut Report post Posted August 19, 2005 The two fawns I saw a couple weeks ago were as fat as pigs. It seemed like they had a hard time gettin those legs goin. Plus I have been seeing two calves with cows this year. David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ghost hunter Report post Posted August 19, 2005 I was out last weekend and saw 7-8 fawns. One set was twins. They ranged in size from one who couldn't hardly get around on up. They were neat to watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ultramag Report post Posted September 2, 2005 it might be a little early to see them, they might only be a few weeks old.still with spots and hiding they gotta be there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hime Report post Posted September 2, 2005 I have not been out much, just driving around 34A one weekend. Saw a doe and fawn from the road. They slowly moved up a ridge out of sight. This was the first fawn I have ever seen. It was pretty cool, even my 2 year old daughter was excited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azlongears Report post Posted September 2, 2005 The fawn crop is great this year down here in the southland. Last few times we have been out we have seen multiple fawns with one mother. Lots of twins and maybe even one set of triplets? From my observations the fawn crop is the best it has been in a while..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
