Weather is nice and I have some time to spend with my favorite goats. They spent the day at the neighbor’s munching on what has grown up over there. Still a lot left, but I needed to enjoy some goat time. Ed
The goats nibble at the flowers a bit but seem to prefer eating the seeds off other grasses. Maybe B&C will find them more to their liking when the flowers have gone to seed.

I don’t know the name of the weed that produces these beautiful yellow flowers. Ed Rovera
I mowed the "lawn" on Sunday morning and took the clippings back to the muck pit in the Back Forty. B&C ate a little of the fresh greens but not as much as you would think. They really like their foliage to be intact; pureed grass is not really on their menu. Rather than dive into the wheel barrow full of ground up grass, they were more interested in the bouquet of wild fennel I pulled up by the lemon tree. Fennel and being loved on; that's more in their wheelhouse.
This is a four-minute video of Clyde finishing up the fennel and making a pest of himself in the pursuit of nose rubs.
Simple pano shot of the world of B&C. If you look closely, they are in the bottom condo. As you can tell from the water in the sump pit, where the downspouts and surface runoff drains from up around the house, it is raining. It has rained all day and B&C have been in the bottom condo all day. B&C hate rain.
