Thank goodness I have to pee often!
I was in the bathroom, and I glanced towards the bedroom window to the backyard, & I saw something move. I could see it was big and for a moment I was wondering "what the heck".
Then I saw it was a doe.
She looked so skinny.
I watched her nibbling and meandering into the woods.
She stood still for what seemed like forever.
I stood and watched her.
I finally walked away from the window to get my camera.
She was just into the woods enough I couldn't get a good photo when I saw movement to my left.
And there was the reason she was standing so still, she was waiting for this little wonder.
The Mom was distracted long enough I could get out on the deck so I wasn't shooting through the window. I'm surprised she couldn't hear my heart pounding!
I believe this is a fresh baby, Mom was really licking away at the little one's buttinski.
The fawn was so small, barely came up to the Mom's knees.
I hope they stay safe, the county road is starting to be busier again.
🤞
I'm not in favor of feeding deer, but I had a bag of cracked corn here for the squirrels, so I dumped it back near where the Mom had been standing. The squirrels can find it there and maybe Mom will come back with junior. I set the trailcam up so I'll know if she does.
Have a good day, I'm having a great one!
