Nothing gives me more pleasure then watching baby deers. I saw this Momma in the cemetery one evening and then 5 days later I saw her with twins. I've been going out most evenings since there are other 'Momma's-to-be" and last night there was a Buck. With the Buck around I'll need to be careful walking around. Although last night he didn't seem to concerned about me being there. I'll post his photo later.

1 -- Momma ...

4 -- One of the babies when it's a little older. Dang they grow fast :D

Then I came across this new one. Couldn't be more then a few days old. I call this one Precious .. it's just beautiful :D

    Sitting quietly, doing nothing. Spring comes and the grass grows by itself.

    I like #4 and #5 best. #4 because the fawn is active, #5 is just too cute. Tough expsosures with strong light and deep shade, well done.

    Aren't babies just the cutest things iloveyou.gif

    Taking photos there is so tough. The lighting isn't the greatest, but that's the time their active so I don't have a choice. Definitely a learning experience for me. If they would stand still for me that would help a whole lot too rolleyes1.gif

    Really cute photos! I love the one where the fawn is laying in the shadow of the tombstone.

    Precious is just a cutie. When I came upon that one I just stood there for awhile watching it. Almost didn't take a photo because I didn't want to disturb her/him.
