Any bucks in velvet pics?

There are some excellent deer pictures in here. Love the one silhouetted against the sky.

The bigger one in the first picture looks to have broken his nose a time or two.

Funny that... I have a different take. After getting home and looking at him closely in the picture... he's got that "Roman nose" which isn't common around here. And he'd got grey, with some dark spots on his neck and face... and so do a couple of the does hanging around in my yard. Same curved top-of-snout, same grey, same spots. I think he must be their daddy, or at least uncle.

It’s definitely a genetic trait if multiple deer including does have the same feature, pretty uncommon as well. Definitely cool

I’m gonna spend all this next deer season at my shop looking at doe snouts now lol. We’ve had some cool stuff come in over the years from horned does to ball less bucks.
