Donald Deer




This Memorial Day weekend, I got to meet a cutie pie named Donald. He has soft brown hair, big brown eyes, and very long legs. He is sweet and nice.


No he's not a hunk o' burnin' love... he's a tiny one-week old white tailed deer (compare his size to the baseball in front of him)!




He was delivered to a rescue center when his mother was hit by a car, and now Donald is doing very well. When he first arrived, he was so small and frail that he couldn't walk! But now, he is alert, takes short walks, and sleeps under some tomato plants. Once he grows up, he'll be released back into the wild. Spending time with this small guy was the highlight of the weekend!
