Lucky Fawn Footage
Maybe the luckiest game camera footage I've captured to date. No food bait, no salt lick station, just a camera placed down at our pond along a well used game trail. Remarkably, the doe and fawn stopped in front of the camera and stayed in the exact same spot while the camera recorded the few minutes of shared video 10 seconds at a time. Decided against adding music or making any significant edits... the beauty of God's creation speaks volumes enough as is.

that is awesome. Good mom. Surprised there isn't a twin with that kind of care.
In the end we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. And we will understand only what we are taught.

Wow! What a beautiful sight. Thanks for sharing.
It's almost like they know the camera is there.

Browning Strike Force, though I also own / use a few Moultries and Stealth Cams. Love the compact/tight design of the Strike Force, photo/vid quality is good, and battery life is fairly decent too.galantnole wrote:Question - what kind of camera is that? interested in getting one myself.

Cool footage....If I was a little smarter, I'd be able to "back into" a breed date. 2 weeks old maybe? Bread around 11/1? Sound right?

Re: Lucky Fawn Footage
Definitely would put the conception date in November... deer in my neck of the woods provide lots of pre-rut signs late October and we see bucks seem to do their peak chasing between start of Nov and mid-Nov.OG wrote:Cool footage....If I was a little smarter, I'd be able to "back into" a breed date. 2 weeks old maybe?

Interesting thing about North Florida is how much variation there is with just a few miles of distance. A fellow board member and I touch base from time to time on what we're seeing and he hunts only about 5 miles away and he's written me to say he's seeing peak chase activity hitting in December while on my place activity has slowed way, way down.

Re: Lucky Fawn Footage
That's really cool! Made me think of the fawns I saw the other night that were goofing off with each other about 300 yards from my house while my boys and I were out for a walk in the evening.....first fawns i've seen around here....
