I love it when our wet weather creek is running.
The Donkettes have a slightly different opinion.

I love your blog! Thankyou!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty creek! It looks so peaceful...
ReplyDeleteCheers,

And here I thought they were just unwilling to get their pedicures messy.
ReplyDeleteI do love a donkey! I waxed philosophical on my desire to have a donkey on my blog recently..lol. And nope, they aren't at all stubborn, just humans are stubborn :)
ReplyDeleteI never knew that about donkeys. And yes, I did wonder about the white line.
ReplyDeleteI just discovered you blog. It's wonderful! The photos of the animals are precious and the blog is so informative. What a change of lifestyle you made! Donkeys..sheep..sweet little lambs. You really take good care of them. Congratulations for a having a beautiful blog and a wonderful farm!
ReplyDeleteI've read that same book...it's great. We now have 5 donkeys, and most people DO believe they are stubborn. But they are just being careful, checking out the situation.
ReplyDeleteOurs will stand for a l o n g time looking at our stream before they will cross...and then they always must cross in the same exact spot as before. They are really very comical creatures..
I love it when you start having babies. All of our horses but two have had their babies and I got a paint stud baby this time. I've waited four years! Aren't donkeys just the cutest! Ours are just crazy! And my peacocks are laying! Loving the farm life--just wish I had baby lambs like you.
ReplyDeleteHey, moving water can sweep you off your feet pretty quick. Those donkeys are just being sensible, not stubborn.
ReplyDeleteThey need a bridge :)
I love the donkeys!
