Ep. 17: Elly's Orphaned Triplet Fawns-August 2018
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 сер 2018
- For the new people here, Elly had been coming to see me for close to 4 years. I have been through 4 sets of fawns with her. Three weeks after having her second set of triplets, Ely passed away. The fawns have been surviving on their own. The neighbors and I have put our food and water for them to help them survive. With many trips down the road and back, I earned their trust to the point they started showing up in my yard for some apple pieces. Two weeks later, something spooked them, and they stopped showing up here. I take them some food when I see them out, and the tiny one has come back to visit me 3-4 times. I am trying to get all 3 fawns to make regular visits so they know they have a safe place to come and eat. I want to do this for the fawns.....and for my Elly girl.
For those concerned with the "humanizing" of these deer, I have been doing this for quite a while. What I have learned is that the deer see me as some kind of nice animal to them. They run if any person comes down the road or into my yard! it is a special relationship I have with them that took a long time to develope.
I follow the DNR guidlines closely for recreational feeding. I have contacted the DNR office, and I have it in writing.

Hi my name is Mandy. I was raised in Tennessee mountains just my mom and me. I understand you sir. WE had wild deer that came every morning for my mom to feed them. THEY loved mom so much they would Bring their little ones to show mom. This went on for 10 years all most. The night my mom past away my sister said she couldn't pull in the drive way from all the deer. I cried when I went out side cut the flood lights on and oh my there was a hole herd in our yard. I told my sister that I'd feed moms deer in the morning like mom would want. The next morning I went out side ready to feed moms deer but to my surprise there was no deer. I waited til noon but still no deer. I done this for a week and no deer. Me and my sister think the deer knew mom was gonna pass away and they came one last time that night to say goodbye.. So please love those deer because when a deer loves you it's true love. THANK YOU for all you do. BLESSINGS to you and your family.
Hi Mandy! I have gotten thousands of comments on my videos, but none so beautiful as yours. It is wonderful that they loved your mom so much and that there were so many of them. Your mom had a second family that she loved and cared of, like she did you. What a wonderful, touching story, and I wish it could have been documented and shared through videos. Your mom had a very giving heart to take the time to share part of each day with her furry friends. I am so sorry you lost your mom, and it is beautiful that her deer friends all came to show their love for her in her passing. I hope you get the chance to carry on for her. It's one small step at a time. God bless you and your family, and thank you so much for sharing this heartfelt story! Best wishes......always:-)))))))
@@flyfish0822 BOTH YOUR STORIES ARE AMAZINGLY WONDERFUL !
Wow!! I'm not easily moved especially by a story from someone I don't even know BUT...I got all weird feeling inside as I read your comment. how there was an entire herd of deer the night your mom passed. Then they never came back. They knew shed gone on. That is so beautiful. Amazing.
omg oh wowwwwwwww. this is beautiful!!!!! Sad and beautiful. One day i wish to meet you . i love you and all the people in the comments section.
*_Amazing story of true love ...God bless your mom and your family_*
You made me cry....a beautiful thing you accomplished. The world needs you and people like you. Thank you.
Hi Diana! I am happy you liked this video, and than you for such nice comments! You can see how the fawns developed over this last year in my more recent videos. Little Birdie still comes to visit me almost every day! :-))))))
One of those videos that just makes you feel good. Thanks to this kind man.
Thank you, my friend! Have a great summer!!! :-)))))
When you see a dead deer on the side of the road in the spring, there is usually a fawn not far away who is starving to death. Drive safe .
EXACTLY!! I saw "twin" fawns this past spring walking too near a busy interstate in Wyoming or South Dakota. I "did not" see mom anywhere (not that I 'couldn't see) it was mostly an open meadow behind them! I didn't have the opportunity to stop either. BUT this past spring I have seen too many dead babies sadly! I really wish "more" people would take the time to check & help if needed & STOP being so restricted, confined by rules & regulations of "so-called" rights & wrongs & just help!!
YES - there are 'too many' that jump in when actually moms are nearby but this was a vast "open" field & NO mom visible. I am a truck driver for many years & know what I see. TOO much death & horrible sadness the past 5 years.
K
Yes indeed!
SharkSport l live in North Carolina , there's about 20 acres of woods where l live. No chance for them to be developed and just as luck would have it there are deer in the woods. Come winter or just before Thanksgiving l start putting out corn and sliced apples for the deer . They come into my backyard nearly every night depending on weather to eat. I just love watching them , there's anywhere from 4 to 10 that show up including 2 bucks
i live for videos like this!!!
love love
You have the hands of Saint Francis with the babies of the wild. Thank you for all that you do.
Ahh Saint Francis of Assisi. That's why my soul stirred watching this.
Mat O'Keefe👏🥰❤️😘
I don't know him . I prefer to say the hands of god
Saint who....? They dont care about this world. Give credit to people who do yes, people need to stop giving credit to people who dont!!
Mandy, I saw and read your story about how you and your mom lived with many deer and your mom used to feed the deer everyday. That is soooo special and touching. There was a special bondage between the deer and your mom. And the night before she passed away, they came up as to say goodbye. But the next day you waited and waited and waited and they never came back. That was a sign. Animals can sense these things. And it was definitely a very strong bondage and love between your mom and those deer. I cried after reading your story. It was so touching to the heart. Thanks for sharing it.

The music is perfection! Beautiful video!!!
Hi Brian! The music just pulls everything together, doesn't it? :-)))
@@flyfish0822 literally
I had to fast forward beginning cause music made me sad😢
Thanks so much for your helping this sweet babies mister, have a long life, it is so great they have such protection by you
Hi Ekaterine. It is such a pleasure for me to help these babies out, especially for my good friend, Elly! ;-)))))
I love animals so much and I wish I had the opportunity to help them like you flyfish0822. You are an amazing man and one of God’s true Angels here on Earth...God bless you!!
you are an amazing human being , thank you for taking care of these beautiful babies 😢
I know what you mean, I love deer too, with lots of ketchup. Hmmm, yummy.
We need like this people in the world peace love ❤️
@@BullToTheShitBlanked!!! 🤣🤣
My friend, you're a great person. Thank you for all you do to these cute babies. You're an amazing guy
Hi Yonathan! I'm just a simple person. Its these wild ones that are great! :-)))))))
@@flyfish0822 Yes, the deers are wonderful it's true, and I love them too. But you too my friend, you're a great guy. You have a lot of empathy, love and kindness towards these babies fawns and it's very beautiful :) I'm like that too. Wish you a great weekend !
P.S : and the music is amazing too, great choice
You have a very kind heart, sir. I normally wouldn't advocate for familiarizing wildlife with humans too much, but they really needed your help, and you did them a great favor by giving them food, love, and attention that their mother could no longer give them.
Much envy from me here in the UK. Just a shame that there are not more people like you. Keep up the good work eh. Thks
Hi Brian! Thank you! I love spending time with these furry, beautiful animals! :-)))))))))))
@@flyfish0822 what happened to Elly?
There is a lot of people like him.
@@HappyGirl92593 But unfortunately, not enough. Animals can give so much back without asking for much. The guy is a hero to me. thks
Watching you in your videos I get the thought you are doing exactly what you were destined to do in life. Touching,giving and making the world a better place one Gods creature at a time. Bless you Sir. ❤️
Thank you for such nice comments. I'm glad you like the videos:-)))))))))))

Disney should be notified. There is a hit movie here. An animal lovers dream.
You are a saint.
I am sending this to all my friends.
Hi Steven! Thank you for your nice comments. I am glad you enjoyed the video! Two of the fawns come to visit me every day now (more recent videos) and are healthy and happy! :-)))))
You are an amazingly wonderful example of what happens when human beings aren’t selfish. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Cheral! How could a person not help these little ones? I am happy you enjoyed this! :-))))
This is just beautiful!!!!! God bless you sir!!!!!

Beautiful ....Thank you so much for the care and love!!!!...love from Philippines!...God bless you !!!
This man shows humility and does not want to take credit for what he is doing. He is saying that it is the animals that are beautiful and nature's creatures and i am just there to help them along.
3 sweet, sweet, fury, & gentle babies... and a sweet, sweet, pure hearted, gentle human! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Hi Hanna! I am just a simple person. These little angles are the sweet, gentle ones! Wishing you and yours a very Happy New Year! :-)))
Please name one of them Elly in remeberance of their beautiful and amazing mama!
Thank you!!bless your heart!!
I know what you mean. I love deer too, with lots of ketchup. Hmmm, yummy.
Just found this video - you truly have the gift!! THANKS for caring and sharing!!!
You are so kind, and you are lucky to have been there for them.
You are kindness people who could care for frawns like these cute babies
Hi Hannah! It was hard to see them without their momma, Elly. She had been coming to see me for a long time, so seeing them try to survive without her was tough. Thank goodness, they were tough, too, and brave enough to come up to me and eat. Brave momma....brave babies. :-)))
Oh my goodness what a great story! I am so glad they have you. Your feed & personal care of them saved their sweet little lives.
We had an orphaned one. I fed her & she stayed small but never got close. She LOVED watermelon.
People say I'm a deer whisperer you got me waaaaaay beat. hahaha!
Thanks for being an AWESOME human & sharing these adorable encounters.
Hello from South Texas. God will reward you in many ways for all that you do. You have a warm heart and It makes me very happy to watch your video's.
Hi Tim, and hello from Michigan! I'm happy you like the videos! By the way, I worked with a Tim Morey from Indiana for a few years. ;-)
I really like the video's. I stopped hunting when I was about 20 year's old. I found that I got more enjoyment watching God's creatures and I really never had the stomach for the sport. My father passed away about a month ago. He was a big fisherman and loved it so much.
Heaven on earth. The beauty of nature and gentleness of these sweet deer, a kind man caring for them, beautiful music, no hunters or mean people. What more could you ask for
You're a kind gentleman, the world need more like you
that is very kind. Thank you! :-)))
I could cry every time I see your videos...Just pure Love is what I see..😪🙏❤😍
Hi Kathy! The videos are not supposed to make you cry! Well, maybe the end of Episode 14 for a little bit....but they are all supposed to give you that warm, fuzzy feeling and bring a smile to your face. :-))))))))))))
You have an Amazing garden sir, I watch this and it proves to me how amazing this life is. Who needs religon with a back garden like that.
Supreme religion is to love all creatures of God. And to live God too.
With God There is nothing!
Well said. Couldn't agree more.
This man is pure gold and a wonderful loving heart ,this man is so very rich
Thank you, Rita! that is very kind of you to say! One of those triplets, Birdie, still comes to visit me almost everyday. She is 2 years old now, and just had her first fawn in late May. You can see Birdie and her fawn at the end Episode 35, which I just posted a few days ago. :-)))))))))))))))
You are a very special human being to care for these precious creatures. May you and these babies live long and prosper !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you, Larry, for such nice comments! Since I made this video, the middle one disappeared (late summer 2018. The big one turned out to be a young buck, Eli, and the tiny one I named Birdie. Eli and Birdie came to visit me every day all last winter, spring, and summer (more recent videos). Eli moved on in the fall, and Birdie still comes to visit me. She was here twice today. :-))))
I love this story. Thank you for posting.
Hi Elaine! I am happy you enjoyed this! Little birdie and Elly Mae come and see me almost every day now (most recent videos). I am always thrilled to see them! Have a great week! :-)))
You are blessed.
Human was created as Steward of the Earth.

I stand corrected, I have corrected the word.
Thanks.
You’re lucky to be graced by these majestic creatures especially by the precious fawns.
Hi KI! Took quite a while and lots of patience, but it is so well worth it! Have a great week! :-)))))
They may not have made it without your loving care. What a blessing.
I had some great help from the neighbors, especially Angie and Pam down the road. they helped save these two as you can see in later episodes. :-)))))
I'm crying, my heart aches for them.
Hi Chris. They are still doing good. All 3 were close to my yard tonight. the tiny one came up and was eating some corn from my hand. One step at a time. :-)))
I know what you mean. I love deer too, with lots of ketchup. Hmmm, yummy.
Beautiful! Thank you!
They are very sweet, aren't they? ;-)
Omg what is it with 128 HEARTLESS people giving this beautiful video a thumbs down
Thank you sir for sharing such a beautiful story
I am happy you enjoyed this video! You can see the progress of some of the little ones in my more recent videos. Birdie was just here today again for a nice snack! :-)))
You are a very special man! Hands of Love! God Bless you for standing by these babies Mom knew you wouldn’t turn your back on them! Thank you for caring for Gods creations!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
HI LIsa! Elly was a very special friend to me. It was so rewarding earing the trust of these little ones and watch them grow. Little Birdie still comes to visit me a few times a week (more recent videos) and is doing great! Wishing you a great week! :-)))
i really love this man! hes living my dream and my kinda world so wonderful to see and i always want to try cause of people like him keep it up who ever you are! hugs rest in peece elly
Hi Cheryl! It took a long time to get to this point, and a lot of patience and failed attempts. Elly was the one that set the standard for trust. All the other deer seemed to notice, and because of Elly, they started to trust me, too. It was very difficult losing her, but every harder on her 3 week old fawns who were so scared. Two of them come to visit me every day now (more recent videos) and are healthy and doing great! Thank you for your kind comments, and I wish you the best! :-)))))
You Are surely,blessed.As are they
Hi Candy! Yes, they are so very sweet! Little Birdie and Elly Mae come to visit me almost every day now (more recent videos). Little Wrigley disappeared back in late August sadly.
1st of all the music is PERFECT! 2nd of all what privilege for you to get know these beautful creatures, Finally thank you for sharing with us, it is a privilege to get to watch this! THANKS!
Thank you, my friend! I'm glad you enjoyed this! Have a great weekend! :-))))))
WOW!! I just came across this video on UA-cam. You can tell that the man feeding the deer is a wonderful human being! This gives me a great feeling inside,....when I know the "real" world we are living in, now. It gives me great positivity in the future of mankind.😊😊🙋♂🦌🦌🦌🦌
Thank you, Robert! That is very kind of you! I love that these beautiful, wild animals have come to trust me the way they do. Have a great week! :-)))))))
I get a lump in my throat watching this. It's a Happy/Sad situation. Happy they are surviving (if not thriving), and Sad that their Mom (your dear, sweet Elly girl) is gone, and they are in such a dire situation. And, of course, HAPPY they have YOU, trying your very best to help them in every way you can. I know Elly would be happy about that as well, and grateful to YOU as I am. You, sir, are a Gentleman and a Scholar. The deer in your area are very fortunate to have you as their friend, and us UA-cam humans are fortunate to have your videos to enjoy. Take a Gold Star out of Petty Cash, and keep us posted on your magnanimous efforts.
I would much enjoy corresponding with you by e-mail, IF you have the time and inclination. Us kindred spirits need to stick together, and reinforce each other!! :-)
Warmest Regards,
Jerry
P.S. I have an Ellie girl myself. A 7-year-old, very sweet, very smart, and sometimes mischievous tuxedo kitty. I rescued her as a stray orphaned kitten, looking for help. (ALL of my cats are indoor-only, but I built them an outdoor 15' x 15' enclosed Kitty Atrium, with 24/7/365 access via a Kitty-Door and short 'tunnel' from my back door. They LOVE it!! I was out there yesterday, with a weed-wacker and zip-ties, doing routine maintenance.)
WarpdriveJWB kitty atrium... that's awesome. My kitties would love that!
Hello, Kitty Exotica - It was relatively simple to build, and not expensive. I have pics of it (and Specs) but don't know how to post them here on UA-cam.
How many little furballs do you have? I have eight, all rescues.
Jerry
WarpdriveJWB I have 2, Axl and Jewel. They are my babies. And I have 3 aquariums....lol
Hi Jerry. Thank you for such nice comments. I feel like the deer give me much more than I could ever give them. what beautiful animals! I see you have your hands FULL!!!!!!! Eight rescue cats is a wonderful thing to do, and I know you create that special bond with all of them. never a dull moment, right?
Best we don't post any email addresses on here for now. I'm not sure if that could lead to any issues, but I am a bit cautious and don't want either of us to find a problem with an outside source. We'll figure something out. ;-)
Hi Flyfish - I can relate to what you say about how much you get from the deer. I feel the same about my cats, of course. And yes, they are INDEED beautiful animals!! My cats are cute, and cuddly, and my calico is downright pretty. But your deer friends are Beautiful, and Majestic!! Yes, my 'furry children' do keep me occupied at times. Lots of vacuuming, several litter boxes to maintain, dry food, wet food, treats, medication several times a day for my Senior Citizen, Mommy Girl. (I rescued her from a neighbor's crawl space 15 years ago, along with her five newborn kittens. Adopted out three of the kittens, two are still with me. All 3 of them sleep with me every night.) And I wouldn't take a million dollars for a single one of them. Once I bring them in the house, that's a 20-year commitment on my part. Cats sleep about 18 hours a day, but each night around 10:30 the younger ones decide it's Party Time!! Much running around, chasing each other back and forth, and playing Indy 500 complete with an occasional crash. Cream Puff is a large (18 pounds!) 5-year old male that has earned the nickname 'Thunderfoot' from his racing down the hardwood stairway at full throttle. (NO carpeting in a house with 8 cats!! :-) ) He's not the brightest bulb in the box, but he's certainly one of the sweetest. He's white with what looks like he was air-brushed with light orange on his back and tail, and BEAUTIFUL crystal blue eyes. Both individually and as a group they can be quite entertaining, and they make me laugh every single day. And, I can see the smiles on your face when you're with your deer friends!! Smiles that you have EARNED, with time, patience, empathy, and considerable effort.
I agree with you, and don't want to post e-mail addresses here. We can do that with Private Messages on Facebook if and when you'd like to.
I'm disappointed (as I'm certain you are) that none of the other Momma deer seem to be pitching in to help Elly's triplets. Any luck getting the Tiny one or the Middle one to bottle feed? Is the Big one warming up to you at all? I know you're trying everything possible to help them. Losing Elly was tragic, and heartbreaking beyond words, but I'm glad that she had time to introduce her babies to you before her passing.
I'm sure you're searching your imagination for names for them. Been there, done that... My vet once told me (about one of my new rescues) "If you give them enough time, they'll usually name themselves!" VERY true!!! I occasionally call my Ellie girl "Elly May" (ala-Beverly Hillbillies), although she's the smartest one of the bunch. I rescued Ellie as a kitten, on Elm Hill Pike, and she was named by my then-Girlfriend. 'Elm Hill Ellie' seemed to have a ring to it. (I did notice Mickey's ears!! You did a great job naming him!!) You could always use Prancer, and Dancer, and Donner, and Blitzen!! :-) Or, Wynken, Blynken, and Nod!! :-)
Hope things are progressing well, and looking forward to your next post.
Best Regards, Jerry
You have an amazing heart. Thank you for making these videos

Hi Sheena. Yes, this was a very trying time. I was only able to spend a few minutes with them through the week. The rest of the time, and didn't know where they were or if they were okay. I am so proud of these little ones. ;-)))
Absolutely love your videos. You are so kind and patient. Bless you for helping these little creatures. There is a special place in heaven for you.
Hi Janice! I am happy you enjoy the videos, and thank you for such nice comments. I hope to put together Episode 28 in the next week or so. Have a great week! :-)))
14 (Thumb Down) people with dark hearts, or PETA Terrorists.
instead focusing on them, focus on 2.1k people who like what they see. majority is what matters, not tiny minority of dark-minded individuals.
cry
CW... For cripe sakes....PETA stands for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals ....they are not terrorists....they fight every day against the ill treatment that humans do to animals...like getting animals out of laboratories, out of cages period, and fighting for laws to really give animals protection and not like the weak ass laws that exist so far that do practically dick for animals. PETA would not be against anyone treating animals kindly like this. The 'thumb downs' were probably made by dumb ass hunters. They are the ones who do not respect these beautiful animals. These animals have a tough enough existence, they do not need to have humans terrorizing them with guns. I wish that hunting would be made illegal and wildlife left alone, except when needing some help like this man gave when needed.
c brown PETA is the epitome of Irony and Hypocrisy, dumbass. They kill animals they capture. No different from them poacher pricks.

Hi Nancyray. You have got such a great sense of humor! Aspies, and the t-shirt......lol. The best thing bout a diagnosis is working towards the solution. I wish you all the best in your steps forward. Keep smiling, and keep that bubbly personality shining through!!! :-))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
@Nancyray : Hi Nancyray. I red your comment and had to tell you I wish the best for you. Dealing with PTSD for me took years of work and still pokes its ugly head out once in awhile. Stay strong, best of wishes to you.
The man should have mixed up a formula for the baby deer. 1 quart of whole milk, two egg yolks, one fourth white or brown corn syrup and ten drops of baby vitamins. Mix this up very well and put it into bottles. The baby deer will love it.
@David Lawrence Hi David! I grew up in the city, too. This was all kind of new to me when I started. A momma won't reject her fawn due to human scent. That is a myth. The moms will "park" the little ones for up to 8 hours while they go forage for food. Sometimes, people think the fawns are abandoned, and unless there was some tragedy, this is not the case. The mommas normally won't bring the fawns up to me until they are 2-3 months old, but Elly trusted me enough to let them get close to me at 3 weeks old.
Here is a video I made for a friend out in Oregon. They found a fawn whose momma was hit by a car. They took her in and raised her until she was old enough to go out on her own. She was quite the little sweetie! ua-cam.com/video/512OSMcvChM/v-deo.html
Have a great weekend!
I can watch this over and over, God bless you and your family.
Thank you, Colombo! I'm glad you enjoyed this! :-)))
You sir, are very privileged to have know and fed such deer by hand. God bless you. I envy your experience.
Hi Don! It took a long time to earn the trust of these wild animals. I feel so blessed every day they come to visit me! :-))))))
My late wife would have insisted on adopting these beautiful deer as pets. I would too, but I know that they really belong in the forest, which is their natural habitat.
I hope to have deer on my land in heaven.
😄So tenderly l ❤👍
Sniff.
The world needs more people like you❤👍God bless you sir.
Hi Lisa! That is very sweet of you to say,......thank you! Two of the fawns come to see me every day now (more recent videos). They are doing great, and I love when they come to visit! have a great week! :-))))0
God bless you for all the love and care you are showing for those cute little ones.
Hi my friend! I am happy you liked this, and wish you a good week! :-))))
They are such beautiful creatures and I will never understand how anyone can hunt them. Thank you sir for helping them. You helped them and their mother so much, god bless you🙋🏼🙏🏻.
Hi Kathy! Yes, they are gorgeous, and very tender at that age. It was wonderful to get to spend time with them and watch them grow and get healthy (more recent videos). I'm happy you enjoyed this! :-))))
I hope you're still in good health Sir. 4 years since, your kind videos still soothes my soul when I revisit them. I hope the deers you look out for are still coming around and they're thriving. Stay well Sir and God bless.
Hi my friend! I'm glad these wild ones can bring such peace to you. I have quite the gaggle now! LOL One evening, I had over 40 that stopped by.....not all at the same time, but it was cool. New video should be coming out in a week or two. Have a great week! :-)))))
You are blessed by almighty to have such beautiful creatures as friends. God bless you.
Thank you, my friend. That is very kind of you. :-))))))
My life is just a little bit richer having seen this video.
thank you! I am happy you liked this! :-)))))
The hardest part about loving wild animals is when you never get to say goodbye
But beauty is often transient, we know them as free beings whose trust we had to earn and wildness we had to respect enough to let them stay wild and free
And short that season may be in which we knew them
That love lasts us a lifetime
This is so touching and true! :-))))))))))
I wish all men were as kind as this man is! What a great world this would be!
Hi Diane! I wish all people were as kind and caring as these beautiful animals! :-))))
the trust these animals have in human perso , amazing job people , respect
Hi Pedro! it took a lot of time and much patience. Two of the triplets come to visit me almost every day now (more recent videos). They are doing great and looking very healthy! :-)))))
Awwww, I felt like crying when the little darlings cried for their mama. They sounded so tired and sad. Poor little dears were all skin and bone. I'm so happy they're doing better now. Bless you for caring for these beautiful animals. We definitely need more poeple in world like you who care about animals and nature.
Hi my friend! Yes, it was heart breaking to see them cry like that. They went through some very difficult times. Two of them stop by almost every day now (more recent videos). They look quite happy and healthy! Enjoy your week! :-)))
How I would love live in the moutains and make friends with these animals.
Man this is what I want.
A backyard full with deer friends.
This is my dream.
Hi Margreet! I hope your dream comes true for you one day! Best wishes! :-))))))))
Touching,giving and making the world a better place one Gods creature at a time. Bless you ,
Thank you for such kind comments! Make sure to check out the more recent videos to see how these little orphans are doing now! ;-)
Praise The Lord, so awesome that you were there for them.
Hi John! I had some great help from the neighbors to help these little ones. Eli and lil Birdie came to visit me every day through the winter and spring (more recent videos). Eli moved on (Wrigley disappeared while still little), and Birdie continues to come see me. She was just here yesterday. Have a great weekend! :-)))
If more were like you, this world would be a much better place.
Hi Joe! Thank you....that is very kind of you to say! :-)))
I honestly cried when I heard the triplets cry its so heartbreaking. I am really glad to hear that they are doing alright now, thank you for helping them
HI my friend! It's been two years since that time. The middle one,Wrigley, who would come visit me early each morning, disappeared in late August that year. Eli (who I thought was a girl for months) and sister Birdie, were finally accepted by big sis Adrian and her two twin boys and came up with them for months. Eli moved on, and Birdie continued to come visit me almost every day. She just had her first fawn in late May of this year (more recent videos). :-)))
What a fine example for all of mankind: Yes persistence and patience we see so many examples of this from humans to animals. Why is it so difficult to be this way human to human. Why is so difficult for those who wish to destroy these creatures to see in videos like this that it is so much more rewarding to be this way. This kindness yields many more rewards.
Hi jd! I believe you just asked the million dollar question! Once you witness the beautiful ad graceful side of these wonderful animals, you can be nothing but kind to them. :-))))
@@flyfish0822 yes I lived in the wilderness for almost 2 years respecting the bounds of all that I lived with. Why I came back to what people call civilization I will never know why. Thank you for sharing with me and being kind in that response. May you be blessed and have a wonderful day.
Beautiful act and beautiful music too.
So inspirational. It's like a short movie.
Thank you for this, sir.
Hi my friend! I am happy you liked the music and the video! Have a great week! :-)))
Thank you for all your help. I am in tears.
Hi Teri! Little Birdie still comes to visit me almost every day (more recent video). She is doing great!
I take my hat off to you. You are the true essence of a gentleman.
Hi George! I am just a simple person with some incredible friends! :-))))
It's 3 words that I could describe right where you are is, Heaven, Magic, Angel all in your backyard, you are the angel Sir. May the blessings be with you always.
Awwwwww……..the deer are the angels. I am just here to make part of their day happy. :-))))
Two years later and I still get my heart so full of Joy..
I can’t stop tears of joy. Bless you sir. Bless you. ❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi Happy Wife! Yes, what an amazing journey with these little ones. I am so happy that two of them come to see me every day now! :-)))
flyfish0822 in my cave junction house. We had a lil fawn hit by a car His leg was broke. His mom was gone. He laid behind our shipping container storage unit on property for 2 months. We fed him everyday. We used a shovel to remove excrement and never touched him. He drank and ate. We knew he would die. One day he was gone. We thought a bear got him. Keep in mind we never touched him. We named him Spike. He came to us weekly eleven brought girlfriends and during a drought brought babies to feed. We always had feed for him and a salt lick. After 5:yrs one summer I was sunbathering. He came and licked me. From-that day forward. He cuddled me accept when in RUTT. HIS ANTLERS ALL STILL HANG ON THE FRONT GATE. I wear my antler jab of love ( 10 stiches) as my deeer love tattoo. That’s why this made me just loose my emotions. Thank you so very much for sharing. Thank you 🙏🏻
What a beautiful story! I am so happy you got to experience such a wonderful bond with Spike. Bless you for nursing him back to health. He remembered you well, and came back to show his love and appreciation. I hope you got some great videos of him during this time. Those 10 stitches have such great meaning. They are a badge of honor.:-)))))
That is beautiful and thank you for sharing. God bless you for what you have done. Just the obvious oneness with nature is evident. You're awesome
Showing tenderness and love for 3 fawns, that was one of the most beautiful moments I have ever seen. In a world of hatred, terrorism and all matter of evil things, the video shows that there are such things in the world as decency, respect, love and caring in this world. It also shows that there are decent people out there that show humility towards every living creature on this planet. This bloke is a shining star amongst a population of evil humans who have hatred in there black hearts.
Hi Adrian! When you see 3 little beautiful creatures like this, you just cannot help but to want to care for them. They went through some very difficult times after losing their momma, Elly, at only 3 weeks old. With help from the good neighbors, they did quite well. Two of them come visit me almost every day now (more recent videos). It is so much fun watching them grow up! :-)))
I am happy you enjoyed this video, and wish you a great week! :-)))
@@flyfish0822 thank you mate and I wish you well and your beautiful fawns.
Bless their hearts I cried watching this video. But I'm glad that people put out food and water for them I think it would have been so awesome to sit there with them in the grass and feed them and pet them💝 really enjoyed the video🌷
Hi Tracy! They were so very sweet, but very afraid, too. It took a long time to earn their trust. I feel blessed that they finally came up to me like this. :-))))
There really are no words...precious and heartwarming are all I can say between the tears!
Thank you, CC! I am happy you liked this! :-)))
flyfish0822 bless you!!
It's like heaven on earth..sadly we are destroying it😭..that music is giving perfect touch to it...😍😍
Hi Malcolm! Yes, it can be amazing at times when these little sweeties come up to visit. I am happy you enjoyed this, and I wish you a great week! :-))0
Hi 🤓!
You realy got me shaking and shivering with tears in my eyes, with grieve because of Elly's passing😢 but also full of joy to see her Fawns being looked after, fed and petted by you🤗😇💖!
This is so incredibly humble and full of grace!
Thank you in the name of all Wildlife and Nature, God bless 🤓😘😍!
Hi Ingo! I am glad you enjoyed this! Two of Elly's fawns, Birdie and Elly Mae, are still around and come to visit me almost every day now. I love seeing them come up! You can see them in my more recent videos. They survived their first winter, and look great! :-))) Wishing you all the best! :-))))))))))
Thank you very much beautiful human! They are very sweet and adorable! So sorry about Elly! God bless you all🙋🙏💞
Hi Lydia! Yes, those little ones were just adorable! It was very difficult for them to lose their momma at that early age. it was tough for me, too, because Elly had become such a good friend. I named those little one Elly Mae, Wrigley, and Birdie....and found out later that Elly Mae was a BOY, so I named him Eli. Wrigley disappeared early on that year. Eli and Birdie came to see me almost every day for a year, then Eli moved on. Little Birdie had her first fawn last June. The last time I saw her was late December, but I keep an eye out for her each day. I hope to include her again in one of my next new videos. Have a great week! :-))))
@@flyfish0822 Thanks so very much for sharing...and for loving them! You are a wonderful person. May God bless you abundantly!
Poor fawn babies losing their mom at such a young age....and for your you too to lose a dear friend...Iam so sorry.
Do these fawn wonder off to other locations for mates or better pasture?
Thanks so very much for conversing with me.
Also if I would like to visit dear ...I saw them in the city close to a forest.... what food can I take them? Thank you!
Hi Lydia. If you wish t take them food, they love whole corn, but only give them small amounts as their digestive system needs to adjust to it. Some love apple slice and grapes. Some love other fruits and veggies. it just depends on what area you are in and what they like to eat. Mine can be quite picky with snacks., and love the corn the most, and only a few like the apple slices and grapes. I hope you can make some wonderful friends with them! :-))))
@@flyfish0822 Blessed Sunday morning to you! Thanks so very much for sharing all this very valuable info....I really appreciate it.
I live in the Midwest.
What kind of veggies for they like other than corn.
Thanks so very much!🙋💞
May God Bless such a gentle man and soul.
Thank you, John. That is very kind of you! :-)))
Great video. It proves that kind people still exist .
You are so kind it melts my animal loving heart.
Thank you, Sandra! I am happy you enjoyed this! I hope to have Episode 29 out in a couple weeks! :-)))
Ellie's children!!! Now they are loved and cared for by wonderful. human who cares for them they have long journey ahead and need all that can be done for them to survive as young wild deers.
Hi my friend! Of those 3, little Birdie still comes to visit me almost every day (more recent videos). She is doing great, and I am hoping she might have her own babies this spring! :-))))))
@@flyfish0822 Glad to hear that! She will remember you and the love will with each encounter!!
Thank you for existing 🤍
That is very kind of you! I thank God every day that I get to spend time with these wild ones! Enjoy your weekend! :-)))))))
@@flyfish0822 that's indeed a magical experience. I moved to Sweden and we have deer here too but they don't get so close to us. I feed them from my window, in that case we stay one in front of the other as I'm ground floor and I love it 🥰.
Wish you all the best
@@auroradeja-vu8763 That is so cool. It took me 1 1/2 years working with some of them every day before the first one, Elly, let me pet her. I've petted over 50 different ones here now. Have fun with them. They might surprise you! :-)))))))
@@flyfish0822 that's absolutely sweet. Both sides. I feed all animals I can especially during the harsh Swedish winters and I'm very happy when I see so caring and dedicated people like you. I was thinking about moving more north and isolated so it would be only me and animals 😊.
Just watched this again. So precious. Now Birdie (tiny one) is a momma too because of your patience and care of them. I forgot the names of the others. I think I remembered that one stopped coming around. I can watch your videos over and over again!
What BEAUTIFUL animals! The story is somewhat sad, but with the love you have shown these babies it could only have a bright and precious outcome. Your Elly would be proud of what you've done to help her fawns. God watches over those who protect the innocent and young. Thank you for telling us this Beautiful love story!! Be well.☺🕊
Hi Rosita! This was quite the challenge! I had some great help from the neighbors, and that was key in their survival. Two of them come to see me every day now (more recent videos) and are healthy and doing great! Best wishes to you! :-)))))
@@flyfish0822 oh thank you for your reply. I only wish in my heart I could see the wonderful moments you have had with these beautiful animals. I will be looking forward to updates on the 2 fawns that come to see You. One can only hope the big one comes around, but fear may be a factor in why it does not come around. Again good to hear from you and look forward to more to come.
Soulmagic..., I can´t get enough from this video...
Greedings from Germany...
Thank you my friend from Germany! Greetings and best wishes from the USA! :-))))
