Mary in Motion

Little Miss Mary appears to be a whirling dervish poorly disguised as a goat kid. When I stopped inside a stall this afternoon to leave some hay, Mary rushed in from the pasture and impressed me with her display of perpetual motion--only a small portion of which was I able to record.  Here's a taste:

"Hello there, Walter. Can you tell me who's the boss?"

"I'll just hop up here on my momma for a moment."

"Here we go. Up, ..."

"... Around, and ... "

"... Down! Whee!"

"Yes Walter, you may kiss the up-and-coming queen!"

Gwen, Mary's dam, is our undisputed herd queen at the moment; however, I predict that her kid will be challenging that throne in the not-too-distant future! Stay tuned...
