    • newborn fawn just 2 minutes after birth

      Well we know I've a bit of the geezer memory thing going, so here my beauty

      Our house sits on 6 acres at 3000 feet in the sierra Foothills.
      There are 5 game trails crisscrossing it.
      One morning in June I was daydreaming out the kitchen window and noticed movement.
      Just a twitch of leaves in the brush.
      I grabbed a pair of field glasses and focused in on it.
      There was a still glossy fawn trying to stand.
      Next to him/her was the doe laying down working at getting the next one out.
      The task took maybe 5 more minutes.
      He/she, the next fawn stood;
      Mom groomed both for 6-7 minutes and they wobbled/boinged off.
      New fawns have no control over their movement, so instead of walking or running they boing about aimlessly.
