Curly

Curly is one skittish goat. I see him once in a while and he takes off immediately. Yesterday, I saw him curled up by the abandoned house next door. He didn’t stir, so I went to get my camera. When I returned his head was up, and when he saw me, he leapt to his feet. But he didn’t run off immediately and I was able to snap the top photo. Then he turned and raced around the other side of the house and out of sight. It wasn’t until I was processing the photos that I noticed the band around his head. I think it’s the same goat I’d seen tied up by some other neighbors. Obviously he’d broken free, but the band was still there. It didn’t seem to be bothering him, even though it’s quite close to one eye. I think removing it would involve a tranquilizer dart! The bottom photo posted for Bushboy’s Last on the Card.
