I guess every area has its unusual animals. For our area its melanistic deer. I don't see a lot of them but
at least 2 or 3 a year. These photos are from a few months ago to several years ago. The most interesting
to me was the twins and one was normal and one was melanistic.

Hayes county has quite a few. My FIL has a mounted buck he killed years ago near Buda. Beautiful.

Gives a whole new meaning to "black buck" (versus blackbuck).
