Doe, A Deer...

Okay, so I don't know if this is a female deer, but I just couldn't resist. A deer gave birth to two babies right in our backyard! One of the babies walked away as soon as it was able. This one was smaller, and took a little time to rest before joining its mother. This is a quiet, secluded spot in our backyard where we never play. Our neighbors happened to see the mother giving birth, and let us know about it so that we could see a brand new baby deer. We couldn't resist taking a picture. Rachael was sick this day, and was therefore not up for the photo opp. She did make it outside to see 'Bambi' though.

Wow! That's crazy! We always have deer in our yard, but never a mommy dear giving birth!
Cute picture of Morgan, too. She's a cutie.
