two donkeys celebrate spring










There isn't much need for words here - except to say that my daughter took the photos and it's pretty clear we have two young donkey boys feeling really happy that they have warm sunshine, dust pits to roll in, and ... each other!

  4. billie, such unbridled joy in lovely spring weather. Their feet seem to be off the ground most of the time and do I detect a hint of a smile on both faces? And more than a hint of devilry in young Redford? They have come through the winter in splendid shape.

  7. shinyfluff, they are total cuteness - it's true! I still ask myself - what did we do before the donkeys came to live with us?

  8. C, I love that airborne shot too - and the one of Rafer that looks like he's doing an uphill canter. :)

  9. Maire, thank you! This is partly why I haven't done the track yet. They go all over the place when they do this kind of play and it's so much fun to watch.

  10. Arlene, it's true - perfect days here on the farm. We had another one yesterday, and I didn't want it to end it was so nice.

  11. Sheaffer, they are still rather puffy fur-wise, but by midsummer we will see those slick, shiny, donkey coats again.

  13. Beth, good to "see" you - how is Cookie? The Pony has started shedding now - so we have lots of white horse hair everywhere!
