Waiting for mom

A new fawn found in the middle of Grant Avenue in Coulee Dam when city crew members arrived at work June 13 waits without motion for its mother's return. Because of where it lay, crew members moved it to a safer spot. Wildlife experts urge people finding new fawns to leave them alone. Mothers can return a day or more later, but may abandon a fawn with a human scent. This one's mother came back for it the same afternoon. - Scott Hunter photo
