That is indeed very sweet and beautiful. Happy Easter to all!

They are beautiful! That bench looks like a great place to sit and observe all the beauty.

Oh they’re so beautiful!

I battle the deer around here regularly, but how can you not love these photos! They are sooo little! I thought the first photo of the little one was a statue.

Jacqueline, you've created a Eden for animals and that's just great. Precious!

OMG those two are so cute!

I couldn’t help it to click and see what you are talking about. I am on the same boat with towandaaz. We have deer on our propertie in PA and NY. At PA country place so far deer stays away from roses near the house after I putting out strings lights and fishing lines. The small orchard became their playground. At the new place we just moved in, therr are foxes and deer in the woods. We have 4 deer passing by the house almost everyday, their footprints were everywhere on one side of house in the snow. I haven’t seen any babies yet. I don’t mind to have deer on the property as long as my roses can stay safe. there are plenty fruits for them in the fall. Here are pics of deer from my yard.

God won't let me to send the 2nd pic in the church, here goes again.

So sweet! What a lucky encounter for you. As much as deer can sometimes frustrate me I have always loves how graceful they are...and how adorable the fawns are!

How absolutely adorable !

I love those little spotty babies! I don't have any deer around here so I can say that I would love to have them. But of course if we did, reality would probably rear it's ugly head and make me wish I had never said such a thing. But maybe they would just eat the neighbor's plants...

I have noticed a bit of deer grazing the last few days (the doe has to get enough to eat to feed them!), but I don't mind at all - we have enough for everyone, and in addition to other things, she is grazing on the new English ivy sprouts which are coming up in one area now, after my DH mowed it. Of course, there are a few pots with hydrangea or roses in "deer cages", and anything sticking out beyond the wire enclosures has been neatly bitten off. It is way worth it - last night when we came home from Easter dinner at my in-laws (indoors, at the dining table in the dining room with 13 relatives, all vaccinated except the 2 small ones - yay!), she was nursing them about 20 feet away from where we park, so we walked away on tip toes.

I love deer as long as they aren't in my garden eating my plants! But your fawns are just precious!

I promise - this is the last picture of the deer, but I could not resist it - my tenant took it yesterday with a telephoto lens trying not to come to their notice, but from the identical expressions on their faces, he did.

Jackie

Your tenant did a good job on the pic, keep it going. I want to see more photos of wild animals in your garden. It’s like a garden diary, very interesting.

Oh how adorable!!!! Those fawns are soooo sweet!! Thanks for sharing them with us!! :) :)

So sweet! I hope they hang around awhile so you get to continue to enjoy watching them grow. Please keep us up to date with pics😄

The fawns are so sweet! I love these pictures!

OK, you talked me into one more pic. This is the more adventurous of the two fawns, when it was about 4 days old. We noticed it running around our driveway (alone), so we sort of gently spooked it into the nearest flower bed, where it was so small it was able to hide behind the iris foliage!

That was about a week ago, and I last saw the doe yesterday morning. There was very noisy road construction on our street all day yesterday, and I had a feeling that now that the fawns were able to follow her anywhere she would move them - that is what previous does with babies in our yard have done over the years. She had already trained them to "heel" - they looked so cute running on each side of her. Anyway, by yesterday afternoon they were all gone. They may come back, or not - that doe has been visiting us a few days a month for about a year, so she obviously has other places she is comfortable to be in this area - there are large properties on the hill behind us, with way more cover.

Jackie

What a sweet picture and story!!! I feel all happy and cozy. :)

Several weeks later, I saw a doe in our garden again, with a fawn. Not sure whether it is the same one or not - we think not. The roses are Cecile Brunner - I took this picture from inside of our bedroom, out the window (the entire view from that window is frames with little pink roses right now).

Jackie

Oops - I forgot the picture!

Jacqueline - what a darling picture!!! Beautiful roses and such a dear sweet fawn!! I love the spots and the tiny hooves. And what a sweet mother!
