How nice it was to spot this doe and her fawn, this morning. The little one enjoyed some breakfast, as Mom nibbled some grasses.
but as good Moms know..clean up is a part of every meal...she spent a few minutes licking his face ..
and neck..don't forget behind those ears..there's always food behind the ears!
on down to his front legs..
so he could, eventually romp through the tall grass. I met him on the other side of the path, where he was standing with his sibling!!
What a nice surprise that was!

They are all good, but the last photo is one that is worth waiting on. Nice capture.

These are great pictures! Since this doe and her fawns did not nibble on my roses I can say I really enjoyed seeing your photos.
Hi Tina, Oh--I love seeing the deer (fawns)... That 3rd picture of Mama licking the baby's neck is priceless. I can almost hear that baby saying "Quit bothering me, Mama!" ha ha
Have a great evening.
Hugs,
Betsy
Oh Tina..what a precious moment!
Bonus! How great is it that you got to share that moment without the deer getting spooked! Twice! Great pics!
Wow... I get that was a surprise to see a second young one!
You got them very weel, and I'm surprised that they were so realx. you were probably hidding very well. Well done Tina, these pictures are fantastic!
Wow! Even deer moms check behind the ears....Very Precious Moments...I think they were just for you. You must feel blessed.
What a super great series!!! Thanks
This could be a children's story! So beautiful! The lighting was so nice - so soft. It was so sweet to see that doe cleaning her fawn! Loved this!!
Tina - just found you blog, coming from curious birder - nice photos especially the pileated - a tough bird to get good looks at, though I once watched one excavating a hole - chips flew everywhere. But that is 15 or more years ago.
What a magical encounter. Thanks for sharing these tender moments Tina.
Wow, fabulous! I would've dropped my camera in the excitement of such a find! LOL
Tina: You are so lucky to get to see these babies out in the open.
Lovely series on the fawns Tina. It should have been a awesome sighting...Thomas
With animals like these you could forget birds for a day or two. I know I could.
Oh Tina, those are so cute! Thanks so much for sharing them with us.
What a treat. These are such sweet images!
