Mama deer and her newborn fawn were hanging out in my front yard yesterday. They got spooked by something, mother deer took off into the brush across the road and the fawn just laid down. She watched me from across the street as I came up to get this shot. About a half hour later, she crossed back over the road and they both went on their way.

If the fawn was nappin in the leaves in the woods ya might of missed it with the spots camo.

Wow re: snow leopard.

They don’t mind being upside down much either.
Friend sent me this one.
It’s from at the local Cuse zoo.

First instinct is to let it be. Figure it’ll move on when the sun goes down.

Hopefully mom will come back at sunset

I found a baby deer alone in a field/garden/backyard - do they need help?

Every year, wildlife rehabilitators care for healthy fawns that were thought to be orphaned. What to do if you find a deer fawn alone.

Little one picked up and walked away solo
I’m afraid it won’t survive

It might be okay. Isn’t it funny how quickly we attach ourselves to animals? Rockland has more then enough deer already but I’m still pulling for it to find it’s mother.
