A doe on the run near French Lake in the Wichitas. This one is not pregnant, maybe a yearling. Note the lush green grass springing up in an area burned last fall.
Our beautiful world, pass it on.
Spotted this little doe after leaving the gym this morning. Now that a good portion of the trees & woods have been obliterated locally this year, the deer are getting themselves acclimated to the roads and highways and becoming more visible. There was a larger herd with over 20 of them in the adjacent field.
This doe is at least 7 years old and each of those years she has had her babies behind Bobby's big garage. She has twins again this year (the usual for her) and once she even had triplets. She usually doesn't bring them out of hiding for a couple weeks but when she does I usually get an "official" presentation from her. The previous post showed her cleaning him for this big moment. They just stood there while I took the picture . . . normally, the fawn would have been long gone when I opened the door to go out. (wish she would have brought both babies)

The roe deer is primarily an animal of mixed and small woodland but is capable of adapting to a wide variety of habitats. It has colonised the northern conifer forests and has penetrated many towns, making use of gardens, parks and other open spaces where there is food and cover. It may also be seen well out into open farmland.
The roe deer is a native species which has been present in Britain since at least the Mesolithic period. However, probably because of over-hunting, it became extremely scarce in medieval times and by 1700 was considered extinct in southern and central England and all of Wales. It also disappeared in most regions of Scotland except for the northern Highlands. After 1800 there were re-introductions into England and colonies were established in Dorset, Sussex and East Anglia. At the same time, there was a gradual re-colonisation of most of northern England and Scotland. Today, roe deer occur in most of southern England, all of northern England and Scotland, and they are continuing to spread into the Midlands and Wales.
This is a year and-half year-old doe. Too young to bear a fawn this season. Will likely breed this fall.

The deer hunting was slow in the Oklahoma Cross Timbers this morning. Still it was good to be back in the woods after being gone for several weeks.
I stood waiting for a Barred owl to wake up and was glad these gals visited. I couldnt fit her all into the frame but I like it anyway.
It is quickly becoming that season. The bucks will seek out the does. Layers of fog this particular morning and a shadow of a doe.
Potentially the same doe and fawn as seen in the previous photo, or at least probably one of the two sets that were together (since both days had two sets of mother and child, and they were photographed in the same location and roughly the same time of day). Here the doe is mildly curious about me, but not moving between me and her baby. The babe is a few days older, and the mama likely remembers seeing me before.
