The Twins

Taken by a trail camera in a different location - twin fawns.

It's possible they could be the same pair from yesterday's post but there's no way to know for sure.  Spotted fawns all look alike.

Upon further reflection it has occurred to me that it is already the end of August when most fawns are already fading their spots into a respectable autumn coat.  These deer have all their spots.  And they're small too.  Obviously the result of a doe bred very late in the rut.

Going into fall and winter the odds are going to be stacked against these twins.  But there again the whitetail deer is an amazingly durable and adaptable animal.
