00:00I saw that baby coming out of the forest, but I didn't see a mother.
00:09I attached a bottle of milk on a bird feeder.
00:13She went for it almost right away, and I couldn't believe it.
00:18But eventually I tried to hold the bottle myself, and she came, and I was like, no way.
00:26I was giving her six bottles a day.
00:32Eventually we got close, we became best friends.
00:37To have a baby deer as a friend, free to go, just help them with their milk and they like
00:44you, it was awesome.
00:46She's wild and she will remain wild.
00:49She would do her things in the daytime, but every morning she would be there.
00:52She really loves to sit there by the passion of the lawn.
01:02Can you handle this one?
01:04Yeah?
01:05Ah!
01:06Good job.
01:07I want her to be a wild, free, happy deer.
01:10I started having walks in the forest with her.
01:13What's on the menu?
01:16Oh.
01:21You don't stop.
01:23I'm with Perry.
01:24Hello, you.
01:27We just saw three deers, and she chased them, but it was too late.
01:32They were gone.
01:33That tells me that even though I don't see them a lot, they meet, and they know each other.
01:39The best scenario was for her to meet with another pack of deer.
01:46And I would hope that they would accept her as one of their young.
01:50Well?
01:52She met the mother with two youngs.
01:55Go on, baby.
01:56Go on.
01:58Go on, baby.
01:59Ah, go on, baby.
02:01I have this on camera.
02:03So, oh my God, how lucky.
02:08This has to be one of the best days of my life.
02:16Perry, where are you, baby?
02:18Why are you there?
02:20I knew you were not far.
02:24Oh.
02:25You are with friends.
02:28Hello.
02:29The mother and the two youngs.
02:32Hello.
02:33The mother and the two youngs.
02:36Perry can't be far, because I see her tracks there.
02:41Perry!
02:45Hello.
02:46Your friends are there.
02:49Well, I really like having Perry here, but also, yes, totally with two females.
03:01Hello, love.
03:02Are you going to join your friends?
03:07I like you, too.
03:10After a while with the snow, they ventured out, and I have not heard of them or seen them for months.
03:19Is it you?
03:21Come on, baby.
03:22I can't believe this.
03:24I can't believe this.
03:28Come here.
03:29Come here.
03:30Come here.
03:33My fairy.
03:34She survived.
03:36It was a very touching moment.
03:37I was very happy.
03:38After all this time, she's back.
03:43Hello.
03:44How are you doing?
03:46That's me.
03:48Hello.
03:49Hello, Prince.
03:50Hello, Victoria.
03:53First time seeing you outside the house.
03:56I thought you'd like to see live who's there.
04:00It's our little fairy.
04:02So we have a trio, Victoria, Prince, and our beloved fairy.
04:09It was a gift from the wildlife to have me experience this with such a beautiful, incredible animal.
04:16She will remain wild, and she decides when she wants to visit me or not.
04:20But with a bit of luck, she will come back with her own offspring next spring.
