CouesWhitetail Report post Posted August 29, 2006 I have seen it before in the Galiuros, several years ago. And that was the only time. It was great to see!! I never got a photo of them though since I didn't have a camera at the time. Nice that you got a pic! Amanda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TAM Report post Posted August 29, 2006 That's a great pic Josh. It should be a good year for the fawns with all the tall grass to hide from predators. I was up north this past weekend and there is knee high grass everywhere, where just a few months ago it was ankle high. Good feed and good cover. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GRONG Report post Posted August 29, 2006 Glad you guys all liked the pic, they sure were fun to watch. Those little suckers couldn't have been but about 15lbs each when you consider the size of an adult doe. I wish I coulda taken them home with me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
