| Description | The ring shown in the accompanying photograph was made in mid-July by a roe doe and her twin fawns. The site chosen for their play was an old flint excavation near Brandon in Suffolk. During the early nineteenth century individual miners extracted flint by digging vertical shafts which were later filled in. A large number of crater-like pits and mounds of excavated earth remain and it was around the rim of one of these pits and its nearby mound that the deer chose to train its young. They were observed on several occasions circling rapidly. So frequent were these amazing displays of agility that a track was worn down to the chalky soil. |
