Hadn't seen the deer in a few days, and Honey was getting worried about them. Then yesterday her walking partner, Melodye Winkler, spotted the mother in her back yard when she got home.
Later, one of the fawns showed up in our back yard. I first noticed him because a batch of squirrels were chasing themselves around and he tried to join in. They apparently like deer in their games of tag and all ran up trees. If that bothered him, it didn't show; he just went back to grazing.
I got Honey out to see, and we watched him for about an hour. Finally, he laid down and went to sleep.
You would think seeing the fawn would have made Honey happy, and it did for a while. Then she started worrying that he had been abandoned.
