How I Got The Shot: Doe Feeding Fawn

I was driving the auto tour road between Reeves Boat Ramp and the 4 – Corners intersection when I spotted the Doe. The Doe was watching a young Coyote that was near the tree line. I parked and began photographing the Doe and Fawn. The Coyote left the area and the Doe left the Fawn hidden in the field. The Doe bedded in the trees nearby. 

I had my camera and lens resting on a bean bag draped over the open window of my pickup.

Whitetail Fawn Buck Closeup

I photographed this Whitetail Fawn Buck at the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma.

2018 was a good year for me regarding getting close and photographing Whitetail Fawns at this Refuge. I got this closeup after I parked and the Fawn became curious and came close to my pickup.

This Fawn looks like it is going to be a Buck. In the second photo I think I see nubs. What do you think?

Whitetail Fawn Buck

Hidden in the thick weeds was a Whitetail Fawn Buck and I almost missed it. If he had not moved, I would have. This was at the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma.

He’s called a button buck because his antlers haven’t yet grown. He has two bumps or “buttons” on top of his head. The buttons on this Buck are larger than normal and he comes close to being a spike.
