Adrian Bennett spotted the first newborn fawn two weeks ago. This little fawn is on the skinny side. Just look at all those white spots!
I received a report from Connie King of another fawn seen today. I think of them arriving around Mother's Day, and Mother's Day is this coming Sunday. Of course, they will continue to be born in the days and weeks ahead.
Now is the time to slow down while driving. If a Doe crosses the road, be prepared for a fawn...or two...or even three fawns who might be following her. Pause for a moment or two and bask in the pure loveliness of seeing them.
Thanks to Adrian for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
Sunny, 70 degrees, just about perfect.
Spring doesn't know...
