Saw 2 doe this morning in the Mt Southington Ski Area parking lot, no fawns around. I haven't seen any coyotes lately and as I mentioned in a previous post, there are lots of rabbits, chipmunks and squirrels around.
Also have a red tail hawk living in my neighbor's tree picking off a few animals each week, doesn't seem to be effecting the population much though. I like the hawk, we're friends.
Anyone else seeing fawns around? Still a bit early, but some should be prancing around by now.

I got one on cam in the backyard weeks ago then nothing since. I was starting to think it was coyote food until last night when it showed up as I was sitting outside. The odd thing is that the mom was a frequent visitor to the feed until it had its fawn. She must have been keeping it in the thick stuff. I can see she is a big boss doe and last year she had twins so she knows how to keep them alive. I will be sure to let her walk now if only the neighbor will.

They are still keeping their fawns hidden away. I have two does frequenting my yard....no fawns in tow....but both does are full of milk underneath.

Ah, that's great to hear guys. I agree with bloodtrail, it's early and they're still hiding out. I was just happy to see some deer in the neighborhood again, it's been very quiet the past year.

2 weeks ago I found an old stone lined well in the woods, inside was a fawn that had drowned. I was sick for days thinking about it. If you know of old open wells, cover them!!

thanks for the pics and updates. Sounds like the fawns are starting to get up and around. Saw a dead coyote on I-84 Sunday.

Had a cool encounter with a doe and fawn yesterday. Came around a hairpin turn in the trail to walk right up on them. Doe was about 4 yds from me and the fawn was about 7-8 yds. If I kept walking I would have cut in between them but mom wasn't having it and stood her ground...she actually started to walk towards me a couple of times.
Funny thing was, this was right behind Geno Auriemma's house and people were out in the yard so I was looking over there to see if he had any of the ladies from the Olympic team over and never even saw them them until I turned down the trail.
