One of the benefits of living in a more rural area is the variety of animals living nearby. Aside from the ducks and deer we see on a daily basis (with the occasional boar sighting) some of our neighbors have their own collection of livestock. We like to load up our buckets with cracked corn and walk down the road to feed the goats. Usually when they see our wagons pull up, they come running because they know we bring food.
Helen likes to feed them by hand and she isn't afraid to reach in and pet them.
Will prefers to just hold the bucket and let them come to him.
Alex and Jimmy (like me) are more content to be spectators. Although this last trip Alex was actually letting the goats eat out of his hand and even pet a few. Here he is doing a Billy Goat Gruff imitation.
