Where Have All The Deer Gone?

Been months since I actually saw any of the deer in my neighborhood.  There was in September a Harem of 7 does and a buck.  In December, I found the buck wounded and presume he died.  His left rear flank was mangled by what I assume was an encounter with a vehicle.

Then this morning I saw this doe with her fawn while walking Roméo.


And later in the afternoon, Roméo and I took a second walk with a camera and encountered a second doe with twin fawns!  So the harem is now a herd of at least 10 and I think potentially 16 or 17.
