Game cam picked up this little one walking by today. I'm guessing August born?

Looks pretty young to me. I've seen some small ones during bow season. Hope it makes it

Dang - that is definitely a late drop. I have seen some young deer during early bow but nothing with that many spots!

That doesn't look much more than a month old!

Looks like an August fawn for sure. I had pics of one like that last year. He was a button buck. I'm 90% sure he is the 5" spike I have on camera this summer in the same spot. He should catch up next year in growth

One time during early October I had one that was no bigger then the one picutured follow me to my tree stand and just walk around me bawling for at least an hour. I tried to run it off before climbing up but it just stayed around me. I am guessing that it lost its mother to either a car or a hunter. Poor little thing ran off only to be following one of the local does and her two much larger offspring a few hours later. That doe "adopted" the little one as I seen them together for the rest of the season. I know that particular doe was not its mother because I had several trailcam photos of that doe with her two youngin's around that area previous to her "adoption".

That little one might have a fighting chance if that pic is from southern MI. If I saw a fawn like that up here in the NWLP I don't think it would have a chance to make it through the winter. I've never seen a deer that small so late in the year..crazy.

It would just about fit on my rotisserie on my grill! Anyone got a Honeycrisp Apple?

Why did you run it off lol? Perfect bait is a live decoy!

Looks like the little fawn is still around. I added a picture of a 1.5 year old buck to show contrast, there is a second deer in the bushes to the right. I think it could be the fawn too. I thought at first someone's dog was in the picture.

I've got some tracks around my place that tiny. I have yet to see the deer that made them. they cant be any longer than an inch - inch and a half.
