Look what mama deer produced in our back yard on a gorgeous, warm Victoria Day holiday Monday! The geek took this shot an hour or so after baby arrived - you can see s/he's still wet and a bit wobbly. It is really fun to watch those back legs learning how to work for, instead of against, baby's wishes!
They stayed until the next morning. I saw baby taking another, now less-wobbly practice trip around the yard as I left for my run. When I got back, mama decided she'd had enough of my oggling, and they slowly made their way out through the cedar hedge.
