California makes happy cows. I guess the cows make the goats giggle. In turn, the goats make me laugh, especially when they try to bump ‘noses’ with the camera. And I pass the laugh right along to anyone reading my blurbs under pictures of happy goats. Cool, huh? You only need to bump noses with one goat before you don’t wanna do it anymore. Damn, their heads are HARD! It feels like it’s about 2 inches thick and solid steel. And then there’s the lumps. I was concerned one of the first goats I saw looked a bit ‘roughed up’ but that’s what all of them look like. I wonder if there’s a pattern to the bumps like a Klingon forehead. Can you walk into the barnyard and cop a feel to tell which goat was butting you? And where did the word “butting” come from anyway? They’re using their HEADS not their butts to encourage you to move along. Another one of those silly Americanisms. Oh yeah, the goat. He was just standing there with his eyes closed like maybe he was resting those weird looking eyes or something. He certainly grinned like the highly rare Cheshire Goat… BTW, These goats were behind a blue sunshield so ALL of them had this bizarre blue colour cast I couldn’t get rid of without turning everything monochromatic. Bummer.

This lady was so happy to have her 1 day old goat babies—I printed a photo and brought it back to her a few days later.

This taxidermist-mounted, full-size mountain goat was featured near a tent in Alabama along the route for the World’s Longest Yard Sale. He was a magnificent animal perched on his own little mountain. He rates high as one of the quirkest things I saw for sale that day. But with his $1,000+ price tag, I had to leave him behind. For those of you who haven’t heard of it, The World’s Longest Yard Sale is held every August and stretches from Gadsden, Alabama to Defiance, Ohio along Highway 127. There are 4 days to cover more than 630 miles of yards sales. Please don’t copy or download this image. My photos may NOT be reproduced and/or used in any form without my written permission. If you want this photograph, I would be honored for you to purchase it. ©2008 Patricia Montgomery | Bucks Mountain Galleries All rights reserved.

Musk Ox Farm, Palmer, Ak – Where visitors can see the ancient Ice Age mammal. It is only during rut that the male musk ox gives off the scent of musk, hence the name. Musk oxen are more closely related to sheep and goats than to oxen, but are in their own genus, Ovibos. Muskoxen have a distinctive defensive behavior: when the herd is threatened, the bulls and cows will face outward to form a stationary ring around the calves. This is an effective defense against predators such as wolves, but makes them an easy target for human hunters. In 1934 the United States brought a small group of musk oxen to Alaska from Greenland to form an experimental domestic herd. From this start animals were released on Nunavik Island as a free-ranging population. This transplant was very successful, and supplied stock to establish populations elsewhere in Alaska, Norway, and Russia Qiviut (pronounced “kiv-ee-ute”) is the soft under-wool of the musk ox. It, is harvested once a year and delivered to Oomingmak, an Alaskan native knitter’s co-operative. The knitters work at home in Eskimo villages throughout Alaska creating scarves, nachaqs (Eskimo smoke rings) and luxurious caps. Each village has it’s own signature pattern derived from traditional designs. Unlike most wool, qiviut is softer, not scratchy and will not shrink in any temperature of water.

This is the view from one of our office windows. Taken from the top of Toft Green this is the view across the slopes of the river sides towards the Minster and the famous Rose Window. It shows how each decade has affected the styles of buildings and the windows they have used, from the Rose Window in the Minster to the humble skylight The amazing weather vane is a well known landmark in York, recently repaired after nearly being blown off in last years winds. It sits on top of old North Eastern Railway building. Shot in York Converted into albumen in PSP

I captured this shot after a very slow (on my part) stalk and chase up a nearly vertical incline. The location was a couple miles outside Alpine, Wyoming, about 300 feet straight up from Highway 26.

Satyr
by Al BourassaTaken in the Louvre Museum, Paris, France Feb 25/09 / In Greek mythology the satyrs are deities of the woods and mountains. They are half human and half beast; they usually have a goat’s tail, flanks and hooves. While the upper part of the body is that of a human, they also have the horns of a goat. They are the companions of Dionysus, (Bacchus) the god of wine, and they spent their time drinking, dancing, and chasing nymphs. The Italian version of the satyr is the faun, while the Slavic version is the Ljeschi.

I hadn’t seen many mountain goats so far this season, so I was pleased to find my usual small family group around 14,000ft today. Not only did I find them, I was able to spend about half an hour within arms reach of them. – too close to focus the camera sometimes. It was a gorgeous Colorado blue sky day, but even for June, it was cold – about 25F, with winds around 15-20mph. I could barely feel my fingers near the end of that time and I was constantly worried that in my frozen-fingered clumsiness I’d knock the tripod over. I had 2 nanny goats – both pregnant – and 3 kids (“the twins” and their buddy). these were all goats I’m familiar with from past years (well, the nannies, anyway – the kids were yearlings from last year). Even though the kids are a year old now, they’re still just as playful, and spent much of the time wrestling and knocking each other over. The nannies will probably drop their new kids in a week or so. This is one of the nannies. As I was watching the kids play, she came trotting over to me, not more than 3 feet away, and stared at me briefly. I was afraid she didn’t want me as close to the kids as they were getting to me (I don’t approach them, they approach me), and was a little afraid she was going to try to move me back a little. Fortunately, she quickly moved on.

Meet Duncan the Billy goat. He is a new arrivial here. He is going to his new home (next door) in a few days. Duncan was ear marked for slaughter but some kind friends of ours brought him back from South Australia. Here He meets Max, our Kelpie. Duncan had never had much to do with dogs or horses, but took it all in his stride. Scarsdale, Vic.AU / Canon EOS 350D

This is one of the new mountain goat kids, born about 2-3 weeks ago. Because he’s so young, he spends most of his time around mom. Fortunately, his mother is pretty experienced in raising kids and doesn’t get too upset when he wanders off. Despite his young age, he’s already very comfortable running around and playing on very steep slopes. I do like the diagonal elements in the composition – I usually try not to have the horizon bisect the subject, but in this case I wasn’t able to get a different angle and decided to include it.

I was out trying to get some final images for my pika project. A pretty good day when I heard the groaning sounds of agitated mountain goats behind me. I didn’t even realize they were there until they got noisy. I was in a little island of flat, fairly stable rocks in the talus, and had to quickly swing around, balancing on a pointy, loose rock to get the angle for these nannies. I turned around and saw these 2 adult nannies circling each other with their heads lowered – one of those signs things are going to get interesting very soon. I’m not even sure what the conflict was over, but after only a couple of seconds of circling, they went at it. It didn’t take long to see who was the victor. The other goat backed down very quickly, but not quickly enough, and wound up getting chased down a short slope. I rarely see mountain goats who aren’t sure-footed, but this one was in an uncontrolled slide down a few boulders.

I was driving on one of our local gravel roads today just looking for something to take pictures of and found these goats who had gotten out of the pasture and were walking down the road.
