    Like it has happened so many times before, this morning I got up at 6:45 and started out by watching a deer. And here are some pictures of what that doe left.

    First to show how close to the house this fawn is I took a picture through the kitchen window with the window barely open.

    I'm going to have to make another post as the forum software is screwing up with the pictures.

    The fawn actually stood for just a moment and turned a bit then laid back down. He is now sound asleep.

    I was the first one to work this morning and saw a beautiful thing as well. I don't think the fawn was very old. Mom didn't seem too concerned about the car. I was farther away than this so I cropped the pictures to make them bigger.

    They wandered off up the road with the fawn wanting to explore but Mom not letting it get too far away.

    Been seeing more deer here also. Been quite a few Yogi sightings also, I haven't seen one this year yet, but we have quite a few up here.
