We Are Invaded By Aliens

They arrived stealthily and without warning.

There was a lot of bleating and then suddenly we saw their weapons - sharp horns......Ouchy ouchy ouchy.

A large ram, his 4 wives and six little baby goats came to squat in our paddock. They had evidently decided they didn't like living where they were and had gone searching for pastures new and found our field!

I was very very curious about them, wanting to get close to them but there was a fence in the way so all I could do was watch them skipping around and bleating and posing on the top of rocks. Very cute.

Eventually their owner showed up and took them away - mum was sad as I think she secretly fancied adding them to the flock. The little babies looked very wooly and cuddly - ok not as cute as the Vodka donkey but sweet nevertheless.

Maybe they will be back....
