The Fawn In August ...

 “… I come into the peace of wild things

who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief …

For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.”

I came into the peace of wild things when I spotted this honey of a summer sight ~ a sweet, beautiful white-tailed deer fawn ~ posing on the banks of the Saucon Creek, with its mama doe nearby, on a gorgeous early August evening along the Saucon Rail Trail in the Saucon Valley, Hellertown, Pennsylvania.

A Fawn In The Sun ...

I spotted the sweetest sight of summer – a beautiful white-tailed deer fawn – in the late afternoon of a sunlit mid-July day as summer shines its beauty throughout Trexler Nature Preserve, Schnecksville, Pennsylvania.
