More Farm Fun

 
These were not all taken on the same day, and they are from several locations, but I've created a collection to keep Old McDonald happy.

First we have the friendly pony.

Followed by the longhorn steer. I took this one from a distance, not wanting to find out how friendly the beast attached to the horns is. But he sure has pretty markings.

This little girl was clearly a pet. She maaaaed enough to make Priscilla happy, and thought I should have had food in my pockets.

What is there to say about chickens? They are funny, that's for sure. One of them kept barking, making me think there was a little dog nearby. Figure that one out.

Next we have a black "runner" duck. Ducks like this are more often seen in Europe (so I read), and they don't fly.

Two of these critters get a second shot. The goat was clearly peeved that no treats were forthcoming.

And the black duck. I really like these upright ducks. I used the picture above to show its usual posture in the best way. But I think this is a nicer picture of the two ducks, who are clearly friends.

I wouldn't mind having a few farm animals. The problem is, I'd have to stay home. My terminal wanderlust and animals are not compatible.

That's a crew old McDonald would be proud of. The goat is cute and I would have liked to have heard the barking chicken. The black duck looks rather skinny next to the white one

How can anyone top Barking Chicken?

Love the animals. There's a long horn cattle farm in town, then serve the beef at the restaurant the family owns.
