We've had a set of twins almost every year since we bought the acreage and here is this year's pair that follow their mother. They've been on every trail camera and I've disturbed them a few times while mowing or cutting weeds.
And in the weeds that needed to be cut:
We recognize that these fawns will probably grow up to nibble on seedlings or destroy a young tree while trying to rub their antlers but it's something else to pause to see a mother and young in nature.
There's something about seeing a mother with her young at the farm. Deer, birds on the nest, or others(well, maybe not possums) but seeing a mother care for her young tugs at your heart. Mine is a bit hardened, so it takes a little more for me.
Worth a pause, indeed.
