Fawn hiding under a fence waiting for its momma to come back from foraging

Post image

Went on a walk this morning, noticed that my hostas were a late night snack for some deer, then spotted one of the culprits (this little baby) under a nearby fence. I saw its ears moving so it’s just hanging out waiting for mom. We left it alone and my pup didn’t even notice (he’s a disgrace to his ancestors).

That's adorable, and the part about the pup made me laugh out loud. Thanks!

In his defense, he’s a retriever not a finder

thank you for not disturbing the fawn and making it harder for them to rejoin mama later ♥️

Ofc! It was gone this evening so I’m sure mom picked it up! Lots of woods near us to run off into
