When I went outside this morning I noticed we had a visitor. This little guy was standing next to our driveway.
He took a little tour of the yard, and……
….introduced himself to Tiger….
….and eventually wandered off into the woods. I posted a few of the photos to Instagram (which cross posted to Facebook). I had to go to Charlottesville, so I left thinking the excitement was over. On the way to C’ville, I got a message on my phone via Facebook asking about the goat, from someone who had lost a goat that looked exactly like this one. Turns out they were neighbors a few miles away, and I had no idea they had goats. I filled Sue in on all this in case he showed up again…..and he did. She was able to lure him into a pen what we use for our two goats, using Ritz crackers. We let the owners know that he was penned up safe and sound, and they soon came to get him. I’m not really sure how we would have found the owners had they not seen his photo on Facebook. 🙂
I hung out with him for a while while we waited for his “parents” to pick him up. Goats are very social and like to be around people. He would get upset when I’d leave him alone.
