Four year old Daphne, who is quite used to being attacked by her children, is very patient, possibly because she's been known to make a little mischief herself. Eight-week-old Gus is attacking his mother because he's bored and can't get anybody to play with him. (More about that later.)
Disclaimer: No donkeys were harmed during the actions that took place in these photos (Daphne could have shut him down anytime if she wanted to), although one photographer nearly fell over laughing while she watched.
Just getting to know this goofy little guy?

© FarmgirlFare.com, the watch out he bites foodie farm blog where I can't think of another barnyard animal who even comes close to donkeys in the hilarious facial expressions department. It must be the ears. And speaking of wonderful creatures (and teeth), when I hiked out to the front field this evening to do one last check on the 49 sheep currently out there, the sky was full of bats! I just love them.
I so needed the giggles that came out of me when I looked through your photos. Thank you for the smile on my face. What a nice, pleasant way to end a draining day.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful evening!

How sweet. Look at those ears!
ReplyDeleteYou made my night fun too with that run of pics. Thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteThat was a CUTENESS overdose! That Gus! He is so cute! If I had donkeys, I would never get anything done...they are just too cute not to photograph.
ReplyDeleteOh my, I could just imagine being there to see this myself and hearing the braying (?) going on. Girl, you need a video camera! (Though the still shots are priceless.) I so enjoy your blog! Have a great day!
