This is too beautiful to keep it to myself. I am not sure where it was taken. Perhaps in Wisconsin. Enjoy the beauty of this marvelous creature.
The term "piebald," used to identify a whitetail with at least one extra splotch of white hair, has an interesting origin. "Pie" means "mixed up;" "bald" means "having a white spot." To a horseman, a "piebald" is a horse with black and white splotches; one with brown and white splotches actually is known as a "skewbald."
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL CREATURE!!!!

"This is right off County Hwy O in Portage County , just north of Junction City .
This is a piebald fawn.It was my good fortune that it was young and stupid since I was able to get within 10 yards of it. It ran a few yards (Photo 6), I walked up again and took one last broadside photo before it ran into the woods".
