Musings

The goat is chewing; the offset jaw is not some kind of damage. Goats do plenty of chewing.

Ivory Wee-Goat looks rather demented here, but is merely curious about me and my phone-camera poked in his face. In other news…

Earlier, I watched a different goat stand next to this fence and stretch his neck up, and I couldn’t figure out why. Then, I saw him extend his tongue and snag a fresh leaflet snagged on the fence-mesh and understood.

Overwhelmingly, the troops act together, as befits carnivore targets. Of course, no stalking carnivores lurk in the immediate area.

Here’s a goat picture, although the story of the day regarding The Troops was that Sheepie got tangled up, and we called the owner to free him, so that became a non-story. I was holding off on posting until the Sheepie story resolution, and plum forgot to tell the story. Now it’s a late-breaking story?

The troops are very aware of us whenever we stand in the back windows, or pass by their fence going in or out.

Note the horizontal pupils….

Am I posting a disproportionate number of photos of this goat? Possibly. It isn’t a photogenic issue, it’s posing…and light, also, I suppose.

Meet Sheepie. That’s what we call him. He’s an outlier of sorts, hanging with five goats (and no other sheep). They all tolerate each other, but that’s the most you can say.

Morning cud chewing.

Afternoon relaxation (and cud chewing).

Evening snacking. [That’s Sheepie on the far right.]

Tuesday, Apple announced product upgrades…including to AppleWatches. I have last-year’s model, and I’m glad to have it, but I don’t believe it is accurate in recording several data types. For some years, it has been complaining about excessive sound levels nearly every time I take a shower…and at no other time (not that I spend time around amps). I have decided this has to do with water hitting the watch and not the sound in the shower space…so I ignore it.

This is from experiments with the photo program.

This is a backlit experiment…with the shadow of another sprig.
