Young doe hanging around... - 07/06/11 06:36 PM
Our property is apparently right in the middle of the daily migration of a small herd of deer. We usually see them pass through in the am heading south and then back through in the evening heading north to bed.
There's a small doe that has been hanging around on our property the past few days by herself. Not doing the usual migration. We haven't seen any other deer with her (or a fawn for that matter, although I think she is too young/small). Our property is tree lined and she stays in the trees mostly but has been wandering out into our yard all hours of the day. There doesnt appear to be a thing wrong, other than she is staying around, something I haven't seen in the 5 years we've been here. I have 2 Aussie pups and they have barked and chased her into the trees a couple times but that doesn't seem to bother her, she emerges an hour or so later and continues to graze.
Thoughts?
