Around the Farm

 It is fascinating to observe the symbiotic relationships of farm animals.  The dogs "protect" the goat, the goat produces milk, the chickens produce the eggs, and the cattle produces beef.  All of this works together to create the complex relationships of farm life.  Simply beautiful.

Okay, back to reality.  It doesn't always work perfectly.  The dogs sometimes terrorize the goat, the goat and chickens don't even produce their "products" yet, and the cows fight the neighbor's cows over the fence.  Although the animals can create challenges, it is still interesting to watch them interact.

 

I don't think Edna realized this steer was several hundred pounds bigger than her.

 

The puppies' crate makes a great stage for Edna's performance!

 Edna's goal: Higher and Higher

 Whoa!  She surprises me when she jumps down so quickly!

 If there is one word that describes Edna's behavior, it is "feisty."  She likes to challenge the dogs!

 

 The chickens don't interact with the dogs or goats too much, but they are still a vital part of farm life.  Their happy chirps fill the air!

It truly is an amazing sight to see the animals living together on the farm.
