Can anyone deny the beauty of the eyes of this doe? These are the eyes of the mother of twin fawns. On a day when she was taking time to rest, she looked up into the lens of the camera and did not blink. She simply allowed the picture to be snapped and went on resting.
Here is mom with the twin fawns. I wish I had gotten a picture of them scampering about the yard here, bouncing as they went. They are most sure-surefooted. What a privilege it was to be allowed to enter into their world for just a few minutes. Even to witnessing fawn nursing. Oh my, the glory of God's creation!
Now please visit Mary at The Little Red House and share in the beauty offered there. Lisa at Macro Monday also has much to offer. The pictures are grand.~~~^j^~~~
Thanks be to God!

These are lovely captures - the bottom left is my favorite, mother and fawn looking through the grass.
ReplyDeleteThey ARE beautiful creatures, even though they eat my garden... :) You have captured such lovely images. thanks for sharing at MM. :)
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful creatures...the fawns are so curious and cute. I can see why you felt honored to be allowed "in."
ReplyDeleteCathy....We have little, medium, and large deer scampering through and playing in our fields all the time, but they will NOT let you get anywhere near them without running. off. I know you were thrilled to get up so close to this mom and her twins. You were so fortunate she allowed you to snap all of this wonderful shots. I envy you. Sorry my thumbnail went in 3 times. Mr. Linky really played a mean old trick on me. He kept telling me I had an error and could not post it...but he fibbed and did it 3 times. Sorry about that. I am really embarrassed. Genie
ReplyDeleteOh, no, Cathy. I just came to your post again. Mr. Linky id it to you, too. At least he only got you 2 times rather than my 3. What in the world is going on. I wrote Lisa an email and commented about it on her blog so maybe she will be able to delete the extras. Genie
ReplyDeleteI am so graceful when I am allowed some of mother natures' miracles. Take care and have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteWonderful captures of the deer!
ReplyDeleteI love that one of the fawn looking back.
We have them year round.
As we were leaving yesterday I saw my first fawn of the summer. I was going to the movies and didn't want to leave my camera in the car so I left it at home - a missed photo opportunity but a joy that made me smile anyway. :)
Thanks for your visit and lovely comment.
Amazing photos...that Mom certainly did not feel threatened!!! I'm so jealous, I've never been close enough to get a shot like those!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful week...I think you're off to a great start!!!!
Such beautiful creatures. Loved all your photos, but the one of the fawn looking backwards through the long grass is terrific. How adorable are those huge ears!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great sighting, both mom and the twin fawns are adorable. Beautiful mosaic.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots of the family. Hmmm.... a deer farm would be even better than a dragonfly farm.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful captures - so lovely a family.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful eyes indeed....the look that'll melt any heart!!!
ReplyDeleteCOTTON FIELD is my M M link for this week.
Hope you stop by and have a terrific Monday!!!
My husband doesn't understand it, but I could never eat wild meat. Just one look at those beautiful eyes, who could? Not me, anyway.
ReplyDeleteLovely mosaic. I love your background photo.
Come for a visit when you have a moment The Gardening Life.
They are truly amazing! So soft and perfect that it's hard to believe your eyes! ♥
ReplyDeleteHi Cathy, It is so cool to have a glimpse into God's creation that we don't normally see. To God be the glory indeed! Happy August to you...
ReplyDeleteI love these. Great captures.
ReplyDeletebeautiful and amazing!!!!
ReplyDeleteCathy this is amazing. I have never been so lucky as to be in the right place, with a camera, to get photos like that. Our daughter lives in a beautiful spacious area and there are dear everywhere. It seems as if as soon as you see them they just know and take off. Great mosaic.
