From Foraging for Wild Plants, Mushrooms, Hedgewitchery Herbs

Reminder-Fawn Season ****Don’t be a fawnnapper! It’s very common for moms to leave babies for the day while they forage. It’s their hope that if they leave it near humans that it will help keep predators away. Doe will often hide fawns near your home or even right outside your home. The mother visits very briefly only a couple times a day to feed the fawn and move it to a new location. If humans or pets are around, most Does stay away from their fawn to avoid drawing attention to its location and return when the threat has passed. Please keep pets leashed when walking by tall grassed these nest few weeks.
