Last Thursday, in our backyard, I saw a female deer and her newly born fawn still wobbly on its thin legs. I rushed for binoculars and a camera. To my utter amazement I witnessed the birth of two more fawns in the next hour. Unfortunately, it was a dreadfully rainy afternoon. Mother deer had to work hard to lick her newborns dry. First born even sought shelter under the bows of a cedar tree during one down pour. They seemed to be doing fine though despite the unrelenting rain.
I am so privileged to have observed the births and the wonder of new life.
If you like to see a slide show of the pictures I took, please let me know.
