How deer beat the heat

We have been working at our cabin for the last month and during the current heat wave I've noticed a small buck spending a lot of time near our pond.



The sound of us working doesn't seem to bother the buck and I can get within 30 yards of him before he will leave his "nest" next to the pond.



On one of the hottest days he was seen standing in the pond, cooling off, with two fawns.
