One day a couple of months ago when we had one of the rare hot days I went out to do some gardening and I saw this doe laying under a tree. As soon as I saw her there I went back into the house to get my camera and wonder if she would still be there by the time I went back out. As you can see though I had nothing to worry about since she seemed to have decide that was the best place for an after rest.

I walk up careful not to get too close on the chance I might spook her. Once again though I should have crept up some more since it would have made for a better picture and the deer are pretty use to the family here. Anyway, I snapped the photo and went back inside to put the picture on my computer and put the camera away. I did glance out a couple of times and she stayed there for about an hour before leaving.

I kept looking around for another deer since it is rare you see one lone doe. It wasn't until she finally stood to leave that I spotted the fawn that she was keeping an eye on as it grazed. Since it was a mother watching her fawn it most likely meant there was a buck some in hiding keeping an eye out for any signs of danger.
