Bambi in the Little Forest


Sunday afternoon I was going for a walk with our dog when she chased after a deer (the deer always win!). I kept on walking and came across this little one obviously left behind by the running Mama. It lay very still and first I thought it is dead. I didn't touch it! I just said "Hi Baby"....took a few photos and left. We checked a couple of hours later and by then the baby deer was gone, the mother must have come back and picked it up again.
Am Sonntag Nachmittag war ich im Wald spazieren, als mein Hund einem Reh nachjagte (sie kriegt sie aber nie!) Ich ging weiter und kam an diesem Baby vorbei, das die Mutter offensichtlich zurueckgelassen hatte. Es lag ganz still da und erst dachte ich, es ist tot! Ich habe es nicht angefasst! Ich habe nur "Hi Baby" gesagt, ein paar Fotos gemacht und bin schnell weitergegangen. Nach ungefaehr 2 Std. haben wir nochmal nachgeschaut, aber da war das Bambi weg, die Mutter hat es wohl wieder abgeholt.

So sweet! I like his spots. I'm surprised you could get so close. I'm glad to know his mother came back for him. A lovely photo!

il est si mignon, comment tu as fait pour l'approcher. Dans la foret, à côté d'Evry, il y a des biches, mais on n'arrive pas a se rapprocher, elle fuit rapidement


it is so nice, how you made to approach it. In the drill, beside Evry, it there be some hind, but one arrive not have himself bring closer, it flee quickly

I see the mommies all the time, but no babies yet. I think I need to take my running "off road". :)

Awww...how cute. He was probably so scared. You tell Abby she's had enough deer legs to chew on!
