Cute fawns and a Blogger fix

Two fawns following Mom
I finally captured a picture of the two fawns that I've seen around in our back yard lately. Usually I drive into the parking lot and see them, but by the time I've gotten out and tried to find them, they were gone. Yesterday I was successful. I wondered why the two, obviously siblings, are such different sizes. Must be because one is a boy and the other is a girl, don't you think? Anyway they are adorable. And hungry.

One of my blogging buddies sent me a post that has a fix for the pesky missing email notifications for when someone leaves you a comment. I tried it and it works just fine. I didn't even have to reboot my laptop to make it happen. Good luck! From that link:
Open your blog dashboard, that is where the compose button sits and all those buttons are on the left, along with the list of your posts, published and drafts. Go down to Settings and click Email. If you were receiving emails of blog comments, your email address will be there in the box next to 'Comment notification email'. Delete your email address within the box and at the top right, click 'Save Settings'. It has been suggested that you should close down and restart your computer. Do so if you wish. 
Then, go back to where you were at, Settings/Email and add your email address to the box 'Comment Notification Email' and again click Save Settings.You will receive an email and within the email there are two options. Select 'Subscribe'. Voila, you will now receive an email when someone comments on your blog. It may take a little time to start working though.
I did it for both of my blogs and it's fixed. Somehow you need to get rid of the old notification email, save it, and then add it again. Don't forget to subscribe once you get the email. Let me know if this works for you. Aren't friends just the best?

  1. Glad all you guys got a work-around! I've just never used that function, myself, though. :)

    The deer are really cute, and I agree; one's probably male, one female. :)

  2. I love wildlife. Our backyard has squirrels, opossums, raccoons, and cats! The humming birds and blue jays fly in and out. The geese the honk as they fly over morning and evening to the nearby ponding basin. Makes life interesting.

  9. Those fawns are adorable. It seems no time at all since you were planting those vegetables and now here you are feasting on them.

  10. Beautiful fawns!!

    I tried that earlier and it didn't work and I didn't get an email with the subscribe option. I wonder if that's because when I initially started the blog it was a Yahoo email? Hmmm. I'll try it again and try to remember the Yahoo password to see if the email goes there. Thanks for sharing!

  15. Pretty photo of those fawns. Your thinking that they must be male and female probably is right.

  16. One of our neighbors fed deer all last winter to the determent of local landscape shrubs etc. This spring a healthy crop of fawns showed up. Not everyone was please....

I really appreciate your comments! If you see a word verification box here, just ignore it. I don't use the darn thing and Blogger is trying to get us to use it, I guess. Ignore it and your comment will still appear.
