Look at those ears. This young whitetail is certainly ready for the cold weather. His winter coat includes built-in insulation for his ears as well as the rest of his body. And now that winter has finally arrived, he’ll have need of that protection. Stay warm, little buddy. JK

I came across this eight-pointer while tramping through the woods of Nissequogue two weeks ago. He did not seem to be bothered with my presence at all. He clearly saw me as I was taking pictures but never gave me a foot stomp or a good old-fashioned nose snort, which is what White-tailed Deer will do to show their displeasure with human company. I got to watch him for about twenty minutes as he walked around. I took these two shots as he entered a clearing. JK

This is one of two fawns that were wandering through the yard last Friday morning with their mother in tow. It is a real pleasure (and privilege) for me to see these things. As Long Island becomes more “developed” these sights are increasingly rare. I could do a lot of grumbling here but lets just enjoy the pretty pictures. JK
