Welcome Fawndingo!

My friends!  We welcome another newborn resident to the backyard today!  (Busy week!)  We have a newborn fawn in the backyard who I believe is  the child of Dawn who was born into the back yard at this time two years ago with her brother Digger (you can see their pictures in a previous post here).  So we have named this baby deer "Fawndingo" because we expect great things from him/her.  Here's a pic:
Baby deer have these spots through the summer of their first year (about the first four months of their lives) and then their coat turns an even dunn color like this picture of Fawndingo's mother, Dawn:

 And here they are together:
