In My Face He Is

Eeyore, our donkey, continues to amuse us. We got him to act as a "guard donkey" which he has done reasonably well at (except for last fall when - I think - a pack of coyotes distracted him while the rest of the coyote pack killed lambs and full-grown sheep during a wickedly awful few weeks). Knock on wood, the coyotes haven't been killing lately - I'm hoping they will stay away for a while.

We know Eeyore hates canines. A couple weeks ago, The Farmer took Nessie, our younger Border Collie, down to visit the sheep. It was a big mistake - between the Mamas stamping and Eeyore charging, it was more than bedlam - noone would put up with her and she came back to our farmhouse very dejected. She really misses her flock in the winter when she can't move them around. Chickens and baby lambs aren't quite it for her - she likes to move the masses.

Here's Eeyore yucking it up for the camera. He's quite the personality......
