Fighting Over...

Coffee and Cinnamon were fighting.  They were positively horn-locked.

They must be trying to see who gets to be queen of that north pen.

If you ask me they were both pretty wimpy about it.

There doesn't seem to be a winner.

It looks like a lot of standing around and not fighting.

"They're fighting over me!" Fionn says.  Well, at least he seems happy with the tie.

Now Who's Dancing?

Look!  It's Cinnamon!

Her dance partner is Fionn!

Aren't they a cute couple?

I remember when the bucks used to make themselves all stinky for me.  Ah, youth.

Changing Dance Partners

I told that human Little Bit wasn't about to dance the rhumba with Reva.

He's cute and all, but he's a little bit, well, little.

Reva's young, but she is quite the doe!

The human put her in with Fionn.



Do you think they danced?



Reva says she's a lady, and she's not telling!

Fionn's Accident

Fionn isn't quite so happy today.  He got into a fight with Boeris with the fence between them, and his ear got in the way.

It shouldn't be a problem again because it's quite a bit shorter now.  It's kind of sore too, but he's dedicated to his job.  He's not letting a little pain stop him.

Happy Boys

The human made all three of our "big boys" happy.  Boeris has six girls with him.



Love is definitely in the air!



Fionn got all of these girls.



He got these girls too.  He's got nineteen girls with him!



Marley got to come out to pasture with us.



He's never been in the Back Forty before, so I let him follow with me.





He's pretty happy to be out here.

Our Big Boys

Our three big boys are in the small pasture like they were last year.  But this year, Marley is not a buck.

Marley, Boeris, and Fionn

That means Boeris is now the Big Daddy.

He spends his time annoying Marley, who doesn't even care about us does anymore.

 He just wants to eat grass and tree stumps.

Fionn is just glad Boeris is leaving him alone.

They make an interesting group of guys...

Another Fight

Who is Marley challenging?

  It's Fionn.  The human moved Fionn back up with his daddy.  They were playing.

They were having fun.



Can you tell they are father and son?

Dance Competition

Fionn and Boeris are both excellent dancers!



They've decided to have a dance contest.

Who do you think will win?

May I Cut In?

Fionn and Cookie were dancing the rhumba.

Cookie was very happy with all the attention Fionn was giving her.

But then he got distracted.

He turned his attentions to Maisie instead.

Cookie was trying to get his attention.

He didn't even seem to notice her no matter what.

She even tried whispering sweet nothings in his ear.

It was all to no avail.  Finally, she decided to meet the issue head on.

But nothing worked.  Poor Cookie was left without her dance partner.
