Ha! That last image of a quizzical goat is excellent.
“What you looking at? This is normal for goats”
I agree, the angle of head dangle is great!
The goat thinks, “If you get a bit closer, I’ll lick your salt!”
They are brave, if I were there, I’d buy some salt from the supermarket, and sprinkle it at ground level for them, save them the climb. Its all about being helpful you see 🙂
OH, Val!
Here is some more rock climbing.
Naughty Sipu – read the help text on how to post YouTube videos in comments. It’s on the menu bar, under the Boadicea banner. But I’ve corrected it for you anyway, because I’m so nice. Say, “Thank you Bearsy”.
Thank you Bearsy. By way of mitigation, I have just returned from England after a 24 hour flight, 8 of which were spent wandering around Dubai Airport.
I meant to add, ‘ so I am completely knackered and am about to go and watch England play Wales at my local.’
Brilliant pic, I expect they collect the odd lichen too.
Sipu – 😀
That clip is amazing, Sipu. Thank you. She is SO strong! I can hardly support my own weight…
So amazing it made me feel quite ill just watching!
Nice Photos !
I love this, they are just amazingly sure-footed.
Any idea why? I can only assume that they find something to eat, but I can’t imagine what!
I remember seeing this before.
“It is thought the goats are actually grazing, licking the stones for their salts.”
