I'm taking a break from blogging for the next couple of weeks.
I will publish a post on IWSG Day, August 7th,
and then I'll return to my Friday posts on August 9th or 16th.
Meanwhile I'll leave you a few parting shots:

I grabbed my iPhone and snapped a few quick shots,
as the fawn and its mother slipped between my home and our neighbor's
and cautiously approached the golf course.

The Fawn Takes off Pronking, Leaving Its Mother Behind!

Pronking is moving with a bounce with all four feet off the ground at the same time.
Mule deer will pronk to alert a predator that it has been spotted
and to warn other deer of the danger.
In this case, the predators were golf carts and golfers on a nearby hole.
Even if I'm unable to post, I will try to visit when I can.
Enjoy these lovely summer (or winter) days!
See you soon!
Till next time ~

The deer looks so cute and adorable. Enjoy the blog break
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your break - and thank you for these totally charming shots.
ReplyDelete...Louise, you had some beautiful visitors!
ReplyDeleteWhat a marvelous shot of the fawn on your sidewalk!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your break! I will be mostly offline until the first Wednesday as well.
ReplyDeleteNever knew it was called pronking. Gotta watch those golfers. I wonder where you're going hmmmm lol
ReplyDeleteHiya Louise. Some splendid shots of welcoming visitors outside of you dwelling, that I am stressing is a blessing! Enjoy your break, you'll be sadly missed. Blessings to you my dear love (sorry for the pun)! Take wonderful and gentle care of yourself. Love love, Andrew.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful animals, and Mom is definitely keeping an eye on you. How wonderful that you had this opportunity to view nature up close.
ReplyDeleteI saw a little bunny rabbit 🐰 in my backyard yesterday. I wish I could have showed my son because he loves bunnies. His favorite stuffed animal is a bunny rabbit from Build-A-Bear
ReplyDeleteVery nice pictures dear Fundy. Have a good time and enjoy your break. Thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteAll the best

Dear Louise, this fawn is really extremely pretty and its fur is so fluffy. I'm glad that its mother was also nearby - so it's not an orphaned fawn, just a curious one ;-) The pronking photo at the end is really funny :-DD
ReplyDeleteAll the best and have a wonderful blogbreak and a nice Sunday,
HUGS, Traude

i am glad you could take these photos .here we have to go to zoo to witness such luxury actually so it was truly treat for me :)

Nice pics of the doe and the fawn. We still get a pair from the mountain next door that will sometimes take a siesta in our backyard.
ReplyDeleteCute fawn. It seems this year, almost all the deer (white tail) gave birth to twins or triplets. I have never seen so many fawns!
ReplyDeleteGreat blog
ReplyDeleteHi Louise, these are lovely pictures, and how beautiful are the fawn and its mum. What a lovely place you must live in to have them come so close to your house. God bless.
