Out of Season Fawn

While stalking the Steller's Jays through the bush yesterday I was suddenly confronted with this fawn. This is a little strange since this little deer looks like it's just been born and foaling season for these Black-tailed deer is May and June. I hope this one's late arrival doesn't mean he will have a hard time of it this winter. At least while he's living at Fort Rodd Hill he won't be bothered by predators and the weather here is generally mild enough so that he should be able to find something to eat until spring.

What a sweet little thing! Hope he's going to be OK over the winter!

At least he's in the right part of the country to have a mild winter.
