I followed him in my car, snapping photos through the passenger side window. After a few hundred yards he stopped, peeked at me around a tree, and then came straight for the car!

This little guy was hiding out in the open not ten feet from a cabin where we were meeting a number of contractors. (Interesting — did the doe put him near a cabin as protection from predators? I've found fawns near my own cabin several times.) This one stayed put, as Mama [...] Read More »previous page // www.upwaterfront.com // contact us Disclaimer |
