It was Brad Lovesy that apparently saw the first fawn of this year.

He wrote, “It was Thursday the April 16th in the  afternoon in back of the Sea Ranch center. I manage the offices and storage units. I was working in the back and the fawn came out of the tall grass and ran right up to me.”

Brad stopped to look for the fawn’s mother assuming the newborn was left on its own.  Suddenly she appeared and realized what was happening.  She escorted her fawn away—all the while cautiously eyeing Brad.

Since then two more fawns have been reported to me. This little one could have been earlier than most. We usually see the first fawns around Mother's Day and that's not until this coming Sunday.

Thanks to Brad for allowing me to share his photos with you here. The photo of the little fawn is so darn cute!

We had some wet weather yesterday but only 0.02 inches at Rick's and my place. 49.92 season to date. Today has been cloudy and on the cool side. The sunset could be amazing tonight!
