Seeing fawns and a set of twins often. It's my first year with cameras so nothing to compare. All the turkeys that wintered on the property are gone. Not one pic of them after May. I'm not sure if the raccoon population is too high ?

Great pics. Our fawn numbers are way down this year. 80-90% of our does are alone. Coyote sightings and cam pics are way way up. I thought at first the fawns weren't big enough to be seen in the beans/fields but now I know that is not the case.

Mad seen a few really little deer that had no visible spots Sunday when I took the oldest on a squirrel hunt. Really weird. But I also have seen fawns in November with visible spots

Seen just 1 set of twins around here all summer. Several mature does alone. Several as in like 5-6. I was told that the reason there are no fawns is that there are too many deer and the does didn't breed. I don't believe that. I have as many yotes on cam as I do deer. Never been this bad in our area. None will change my mind that yotes are not part of the problem. Time to take them out.

Originally posted by THROBAK: Its habitat issues not coyotes Where I saw half these fawns there was 30 acres WSG across Rd excellent fawn hiding Place Hey agree to a point. However there is nothing I can do to improve habitat really where we hunt as it is owned by farmers. So therefore the only thing I can do is take out the coyotes.
