@Tala comments, "Praying that I can even encounter a baby deer." @DC adds, "awwwww so cute...love baby deer....." @Vadim sweetly says, "Everybody needs a little love." True that!

I once discovered a baby fawn asleep next to the shrubs in front of my house. Fawns have a special defense mechanism called "hiding in plain sight." Meaning when they are born, fawns have a coat of spotted fur that helps them blend into their surroundings, such as grassy or wooded areas. I stood at my window watching this baby all day in hopes that its mama would return. I had called wildlife services and they said not to move or touch the fawn because mom would soon be back.

Lo and behold I saw my neighbor traipsing through my yard carrying a laundry basket with a towel in it. I asked her what she was doing and she said "saving the deer because it was abandoned." I basically told her what wildlife services said and to get the heck off my lawn, LOL. Sure enough, about an hour later I saw mama deer nursing her baby in my yard. She was not a good neighbor!

Long story short, if you discover a deer in your yard, as tempting as it may be to take them in because Bambi! - you should leave them be because mama is probably close by!
