A Cervus nippon yesoensis fawn on the side of the road…
It did not move even when I approached to get a better look…
It seemed to be looking at nothing in particular and showed no intention to escape.
Was it injured? Or perhaps sick?
And then I heard the cry of its parent from a high place in the forest.
Hearing this, the fawn hastily jumped up and ran into the forest. The weather was nice and the temperature mild, so its place on the ground must have been quite warm.
Still, it was a dangerous place to be sunning itself.
