While photographing the two fawns in the previous two images,their mother came back and spotted me.
She was concerned for her babies so she didn't even hesitate. She walked right over to me
as if to say, what are you doing. I talked quietly to her and then I just walked away after getting her picture.
I think she knew I meant them no harm.

The responsible, alert Mama, checking out the photographer and showing you a nice profile. You made the most of a great opportunity. Great detail in this image, looks like the flies might be bothering her a bit.

A remarkable portrait, Jim, showing both confidence and concern. Love that little long tuft of beard hair.

You know, Jim it' amazing just how intuitive wild animals are. They seem to know. I've had the same experience... Very nice image...

An adventure and a fine closeup. I'm glad you two had a meeting of the minds an wasn't kicked or run over.
