Great pic! It's actually common for whitetail deer to have twins, especially in an area where there are no natural predators; wolves, coyotes, cougars. I've seen one doe with three fawns!
Thanks, everyone. It was a very lucky shot.
The forest is a forest that is beautiful, beautiful children are eager hug mother
"One and only one unique picture, standing on eleven legs! It gave me a lot of good feelings!"
Perfect capture. Whats on the doe's back?
