Separation Anxiety

I came across this fawn and its mother along the roadside. As I stopped to get some photos, the doe leaped about 10 feet down an embankment, over the guardrail. The fawn could not find its way over or under, leaving the two separated and distressed (as well as me). And cars were zipping around it and myself.

I wanted to help and was waving and calling, of course that didn't work. So I got back in my car and backed off. A minute or two later, the fawn went further up and found its way down to mother in the field below where she was nervously waiting.

Such a beautiful young animal. I KNOW, THE PAVEMENT!!! ;) Oh well. D90, ISO-500, f-5.6, 1/400th sec., 300mm, manual. Larger posted, thanks for your observations!
