    So sweet!! I took care of a fawn that had been injured. Her name was Jane Doe. They are VERY affectionate and LOVE to cuddle and be petted. They even wag their white widdle tails when they see you!

    Either seriously tiny fawn, or seriously gigantoid clover.

    “If you squint, this fawn disappears”

    But…but…I don’t WANT her to disappear.

  13. TheLoveofIsis says:

    I want to cuddle wif dis one.

  14. A thinker says:

    Whoa. This baby’s legs are stheriously too long for it.

  15. Aubrey says:

    I’m told there is a fawn
    It’s tiny legs upon
    A clover-studded lawn
    I hope it isn’t gone?

  16. awwwwww says:

    OMG SOOOO CUTTTEEE!!!

    oh, and Aubrey, give up the poetry career. Not working out.

  17. The Guy Over There says:

    Oh deer, something to fawn over.

    I’ve been here too long. The dreaded puns will run me over.

    …Doe!

  18. anon says:

    that’s fawn-tastic

  19. bats says:

    I copied this and messed around with it on Photoshop, using random blobs of the surrounding green grass over the brown fur of the fawn. Pretty keen to see the fawn disappear except for the clover-spots and the cute.

  20. J. Bo says:

    Spotty beebee! I want leetle deerse kissies!

  21. Aubrey says:

    Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, cut me some slack. I just got to work, I’m without coffee and without puddin. No need for you to start throwing fawn darts at me.

  22. Renee says:

    awwwwww!!! I wuv it!! Widdle behbee deer!!!!

  23. Redzilla says:

    No need to be de-fawnsive, Aubrey. Here have a Spotted Dick. Pudding, that is.

  24. Jessica says:

    I think I’ve died and gone to Heaven!!! ^__^

  25. Redzilla says:

    Oh, and this is a very rare occasion, when Meg’s caption disturbs more than it amuses. Wonder if I’m the only one who can imagine the serial killer in the cell next to Hannibal Lecter, saying, “I can smell your cute.”

  26. jaypo says:

    RedZ, yeachh–yr scarin’ me, girl…

    [beeps fawn on the nosicle and smooches her hayd]

  27. Theo says:

    RedZ — no worries. Remember what happened to *him*.
    Dr. Lecter finds Nuffs distatesful, Clarice.
    >;-)

  28. Arvay says:

    Aww! I’m very fawnd of him.

  29. pyrit says:

    I have a soft spot for this fawn.

  30. NebraskaErin says:

    I can smell it! I can smell the cute!

    It smells like the zoo.

  31. pyrit says:

    Wookit teh wittle nubs where teh antlers will be!!!

  32. pyrit says:

    Theo – Oh deer, you can only use the name Clarice *here* in reference to Rudolph’s girlfriend.

  33. Netherland Dwarf rabbit, owner!!♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ says:

    Spot on! I’m ver fawnd (fond)of this pic!

  34. Arvay says:

    Oh dear! I kneed to cuddle him!

  35. pyrit says:

    Redzilla – Ew, that’s not fawny. ;-)

  36. Aubrey says:

    Such a wee Bambi-no!

  37. Redzilla says:

    Bambi-YES!

  38. How ironic that CO put up a picture of a fawn just one day after firearm deer hunting season started here in Michigan…at least this little cutie isn’t hanging off of a buck pole or laying the back of someone’s truck with a tag on its antlers!

    Thank you, CO, for letting me see the deer for the deer.

  39. pyrit says:

    Aubrey – Good one. Yay, you fawnd your groove.

  40. Aubrey says:

    Thanks! Pyrit, you buck me up no end.

  41. Clay Dowling says:

    Yeah, the timing on the picture was ironic. I too am from Michigan, and my route to work involves a 40 mile drive down country roads.

    Hard not to see this little guy as future venison. He’s cute, and when he grows up he’ll be a beautiful animal. Hopefully with a healthy fear of tyvec tags and the front end of my car.

  42. Lauri says:

    Pay no attention, Aubrey. I thought it was a doeling little poem!

    And, your career as a poet is safe forever. Keep whitetailing away at it!

  43. Theo says:

    Nice, Lauri. Ten-pointer.
