I have been seeing a mother deer and its offspring roaming around in the last few weeks. It was taking a drink of the edge of the water when I got out my camera and finally got a few pictures. It has been a hot July month, so they come down and drink probably a few times a day. Looks like the baby is growing up, and soon should lose its spots.

A closer view of them. I cropped the image a bit so we can see them a little better. But I really like the first picture as it really captures the environment around them.
The fawn was probably born this year, its so mom is showing it around and getting it used to being on its own soon.
It is always such a treat getting to see the wild life.
I think the mother noticed me and went into the brush.
The baby quickly followed the mother.
Hehe it has to hop to get out of the water.
And just like that they are gone, disappearing into the wood line.
