Well, I was cleaning a couple freshly caught catfish a couple weeks ago, and the resident doe that lives within 100 yards of my mum's house crossed the road with her fawn. HMMM. Only one fawn? Did she have twins and the coyotes get one, or did she only have one? This bears checking into. If she only has one per year with all the tasty corn, alfalfa, vetch, acorns, apples and the occasional garden raid available I may have to cull her this year. If the wooly boogers don't have 2 lambs they turn into mutton. I've already started watching the fields around home for deer, and I've seen some BIG tom turkeys now that season has passed; maybe one will make the mistake of coming within bow range. I scout deer all year long; I used to watch the fields along my delivery route just to see if I wanted to apply for the DMU permit for that area.
