An Then There Were Three

I have been going nuts for the last couple of days trying to find the key to the cable lock I use to mount the trail camera to a tree.  I finally found it today with fingers crossed there was still space on the SD card to capture what I saw today.  Unfortunately, the card was filled and the great fawn shots that would have been are not.  Isn't that the way it goes.


I was pretty surprised on a third fawn.  The matriarch of the herd (on the right) has had twin fawns for the last three years and so it looks that the two smallest fawns are both hers.  After looking at many pictures, she has nursed both of those.  The other fawn which appears a bit older belongs to the daughter.


The fox couple has shown up several times but I have not seen any kits this year.  Hopefully they had some and have just not brought them up.

After closely looking at the photos, I realize that the buck coming up is the same one I noticed back during the winter had a broken leg.  I figured he probably would not make it through the winter but he is still hopping along.
