Odocoileus virginianus
Piebald deer are fairly rare. I've read that they occur via a genetic mutation, in about 1% of White Tailed Deer. This lovely doe frequented our area for several years and I was interested to spy her with a normally colored fawn a couple years after these photos were made.

Welcome nice spotting!
Thank you, Ava T-B . I'm a newbie to Project Noah and have a lot to learn. Thanks for the tip on the Rare Color Morphs.
Welcome to Project Noah. I like your deer photos; this one could go into the mission Rare Color Morphs at http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/7970...
