We have a goose that walks around that is mentally challenged. The goose wanted to enjoy a swim in the water, but the water source was too small and she was stuck in the ice cream bucket.

Cold Birth
Having goats kidding in March can result in cold weather births. Here is a little baby Alpine goat that came into this world this month and is as beautiful as any: Welcome to this cold world baby, enjoy!
Too Attractive To Die
When raising goats, there are a lot of bucks that end up being born that will end up being eaten. So what better way to make them last forever than taking a photo of them, especially when they are this beautiful! In the background is a fast growing hybrid poplar I planted last year.
Llama Apples
When picking apples to eat, sometimes I run across some on the ground or on the tree that are bad for my consumption, so I find someone else that will eat them. Daisy, our llama, doesn’t mind the opportunity.
Hungry For Duck
Looking into the bird yard, I can see we will have a plentiful supply of duck meat this winter. A goshawk thought the same and it landed on one of those posts surrounding the yard, looking to take an easy meal. I quickly scared it off and it was never back to steal my dinner.
Green King Elm
The Green King Elm keeps on growing fast. I think it should produce a lot of shade for the goats in a short amount of time.
Zinnias
Zinnias and other annual flowers are busy blooming. I think the goats would like to munch on this floral display.
Backyard Island
I was busy mulching branches this year and ended up creating a mulch island in the backyard. The ducks like climbing up on the island and looking for bugs in the mulch.
Colorful Inside Barn
Looking inside the barn, you will quickly notice the colorful bucks we have inside there. All of these bucks are Nubians, enjoying their hay.
Algae Blanket
My dad walked up from the cattle water tank and pulled this out of there: A nice green blanket of algae in there. That algae grows very fast.
