A few weeks back, Mom and I went to the Highwire Deer and Animal Farm. The goats greeted us and showed us around. They also angled for feed the entire time. They reminded us of our dogs and so we kept feeding them. This little guy would run up to you and slam his hooves into your calf. It hurt but he was so darn cute when he leapt up. I loved this bird’s head. Reminded me of how I look some mornings when I first wake up. These birds were so majestic looking. My shadow with the big tortoise. This cracked me up. It’s something Emerson loves to do too. This goat reminded me of Rora our golden retriever. She was so eager for foot she craned her neck as far out as she could. The other one was more like Reagan–skittish and shy. The alpacas did not spit at me–mostly relieved, but slightly disappointed. Mom fed this cute little deer. The donkeys were so sweet! Each had a distinct personality. The camel was somewhat cooperative with the photo taking. Donkey and Zedonk. This little guy was my favorite. So polite. And what gorgeous horns. Mom was delighted to see a kangaroo hopping about. This deer was pretty shy and refused to come eat from our feed cups. His companion walked right over the rope and came up to Mom for food. It was a really cool way to pass an hour on a Sunday afternoon in September.
