The Gate (from the backyard)
We decided that the fawn was trying to jump the gate back into civilization, when it must have caught one of its front legs in between the slats. This shows the hair that it left.
This pic shows the scratches made while it was kicking. (Maybe it was one of Santa's Reindeer checking up on us!?!)
Last night around midnite Moyd heard a weird noise, we thought maybe ANOTHER firework store was up in flames again. He looked out the window and couldn't see sign of one, then he thought 'maybe someone is trying to break in'. He got dressed and went out on the back deck, looked around, came back in and said "there is a fawn in the backyard, looks like his head is stuck in the fence," so I had to DRAG my butt out of bed to go help him. Well it turns out it wasn't stuck but it was either kicking the house or the fence trying to get out. After a few attempts of trying to scare him, he finally did jump over the back fence and was on his way to the great wide open fields. He had kicked the gate so hard that he loosened the post that it is hooked to, so now we need to replace the post. Geez Mr. Deer, there is more vegetation to eat in the front as in the back!
