Here is another shot of mamma with her new fawn. If you look closely you can see her tounge cleaning her little one.
Have not seen the fawn again, but have seen momma several times in different areas of our property grazing by herself.
Did a bit of internet research. Evidently the fawn will stay in one location for about 2 weeks, and mom will stop by about every 4 hours for feeding and to let the little one releive it's self. (momma cleans up after the fawn to keep the smells of the newborn at bay, so preditors will not smell the newborn)
