| molting |
Most
of the resident whitetails have completed their molt of the dull, drab,
grey winter coat and
they're now sporting the handsome, ruddy, rusty-red
of summer. Stunningly beautiful in my estimation and when these deer
move into a hay field they're easy to spot up to a half mile away
contrasted against the bright green of the clover or alfalfa.
You be the judge.
This is also the time to see the new recruits of the year as the resident does have begun dropping their fawns. Not dropping literally - but birthing their offspring. Singles and twins - Jill spotted a fawn at the edge of the yard the week I was off fishing.
