Description HI, Here's a shot of the Doe I saw yesterday while out waiting along the river for the Fisher to show up. She looks really good for such a tough winter we have been having this year so far.

I love her expression. She is looking right back at you.

This is a great shot! I love the setting, the transition from light to dark, and the deer looking back over its shoulder. Excellent!

Hi Garry, Thank you!
 Yeah that river bank wood-line really helps this pic.

She does look very good; perhaps someone has a feeder out? Still has her winter coat too.

Hi Synari, I doubt they are being fed. this place on the river is about a 1/2 mile from the nearest houses. I think they just had a good year for finding food. So far I haven't found 1 winter kill deer this year. She won't be losing her winter coat till late May early June. This is when the new Fawns are born.

Hi Tony,
Yeah, I've seen them with the ribs all sticking out and the fur looking real shabby...This herd has seemed to found enough food this winter to make it so far without depleting the fat reserves.
