Here’s Sheepie. He smells change a’comin’.
Goat Guy came with a modest (yet sufficient) ration of treats, although the troops gathered just hearing his truck arrive. [The treats are in the white bag.]
Goat Guy said the first one to take is the most troublesome. This may be applicable in myriad other circumstances. The brown bill on the left was the first; multi was number two. Brown billy butted all the others as they arrived and generally caused mayhem (supporting Goat Guy’s assessment that he was the most troublesome)…
…until Sheepie arrived (last). Now, the fence and the water bucket…et cetera…are all transported to their next appointment, off Memorial Drive, we heard.

This evening.
Goat day one (a little closer, but still).
Conclusion: plenty of processing by goat digestive systems.

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

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.]

This is from experiments with the photo program.
This is a backlit experiment…with the shadow of another sprig.
