We had these visitors in our garden last evening:
The fawn was young, still spotted, and so sweet. He would graze for a while, then he would run around his mother in circles, leaping very high every few steps. Then back to eating.
I looked it up and fawns loose their spots by October of the year in which they were born - at 3 or 4 months.
We also heard males fighting the other night - it's rutting season. There's a very distinctive slash of antlers and a sharp cry that they make.
