WALNUT CREEK, CA — Carla Winter-Evans shared a pair of photos of darling twin fawns this week.
She tells Patch, "I looked out of my kitchen window to this enchanting vision of fawn … but, we are really starting to have an urban deer over-population problem in Walnut Creek, especially with so much habitat for development being destroyed, and no consideration to the critters… there is no food or water in them there hills."
Carla's visitors coincide with a warning passed along this week by Lindsay Wildlife Experience about a hemorrhagic disease that's been confirmed in deer, mostly fawns, in three California counties including here in the Bay Area.

If you have an awesome photo of nature, breath-taking scenery, kids caught being kids, a pet doing something funny, or something unusual you happen to catch with your camera, we'd love to feature it on Patch.
We're looking for high-resolution images that reflect the beauty and fun that is Northern California, and that show off your unique talents.
