One day last week, Thursday maybe, the anchor and I went to walmart and on the way home I saw a deer on the edge of a bean field by the fencerow, about 50 or 60 yards from the road.
I slowed down to a crawl and asked her if she saw the deer and she confirmed she did.
Then the doe got that "Weakley County turn"* and eased into the woods. Then I saw the fawn.
It was standing upright, under her belly !
I told the anchor to look how little it was.
Then it started off to the woods and she said, OH something is wrong with it, it can't walk good.
I told her no, there is nothing wrong it is just that young !
I can't really confirm this part but the deer looked really dark and after we drove off I wondered if it was actually still wet from being born.
Little bitty sucker for sure.
Pretty cool.
*Weakley County Turn - When a vehicle slows on a gravel or paved road and the deer get real nervous because they figure they fixin to start duckin lead.
