unusual sight

[Rabbithunter 456]

i was at work today, and travelling between jobs in a rural area.

 

I was driving by a set of 3 big fields that have been known to hold roe deer in the past. The first field was full of sheep but something caught my eye, i done 50 to 0mph in 5 seconds

 

Stood among the sheep was a roe deer, probably this years young. The sheep not seeming bothered about the roe and vice versa.

 

I sat and watched for about a minute and wished i had my camera with me

 

anyone else seen roe & sheep 'mingle' together?

Not sheep and roe but, on a farm that I control rabbits on, a doe had her fawn in a certain field which was full of bullocks, the fawn never left the field even though it's mother was constantly jumping in and out, it stayed there until back end when the farmer came with a wagon to take the bullocks to sale, the young roe gathered up with all the bullocks and walked into the wagon, the farmer had a right job on trying to get him out.

The young roe hung around the stack yard all the next winter as tame as anything, then he started dissapearing for a day or two, then a few days until he was never seen again.
