Babies!!!

We went for our walk yesterday, and as we were coming down the hill, I heard a baby deer cry. I knew the sound, because we've heard it so many times before. When we got around the curve we saw a tiny fawn in the road. So we approached slowly. Momma was there and didn't seem too worried about our presence.
She moved away, and we were able to see that there were two babies. They had just been born. The fawns were very interested in us, and actually let Sheri touch them. When we were ready to move on, one of them wanted to follow us. NO!!! We had to run away, so they wouldn't follow us. It was interesting. We wanted to stay, but knew that they needed to bond with Momma, not us.
What a sweet experience for us all. How often do we get to see nature up SO close?
HAPPY SPRING!!!
