Love the flowers and esp the goats! They have names?
I'll try that flower shot with less light and more depth or field...
You know...I'm not sure if these were goats or sheep that had been sheared....they had "goat like" actions, but they also appeared to be sheep....Can you tell I'm not a farm girl? Not sure if they have names, we spotted them in our travels in VT last week.
Were you commenting on the yellow flower suggesting another shot? If so, I'd love to try again, but again, just spotted it in our travels last week. We were strolling through some gardens at a plant nursery (they invite browsers to stop by) and it was around noon....too often that seems to be the time of day when I'm out with the camera.
Lainey, a friend actually has 4 mini-goats to help keep the grass on his 4 acre place, in check. I think he named them: Manny, Moe, Jack, & Sydney.
Anyhow, was thinking about that marigold photo of mine. Needs a bit more depth (like f/8 or higher), but subtle dawn or dusk natural lighting. For wildflowers or delicate flowers, I like the indirect or cloudy natural lighting. That marigold flower is about the size of a quarter. Must be smaller variant.

There is a local company that rents goats to clear brush/shrub. I've seen them in action, it's a great set up this guy has, and the goats are cute too!

Liked the sheep photo a lot. We have the same here where they're rented by the hundreds.
I do believe your mystery animals are sheep. Generally sheep have no horns, where goats have both horns plus beards.
Not all of the birds that visit my feeders like peanuts and sunflower seeds. Here's one from this morning that doesn't like either. We shared an equal amount of eye contact.

Hope this isn't a re-post...weird thing posting with the new format. Gary beautiful bird! What is it?
There is nothing like a hummingbird photo with wings going 100mph, but here's another one (first one in bird thread) of one of my hummers taking a break in the lilac tree. I was pretty happy with this shot, it has been cropped but clarity is still pretty good. Taken with the 100-400.
It’s a Coopers Hawk, Lainey. Minutes earlier it was chasing and gaining on bluejay until the jay did a power flight into a blue spruce - the hawk followed. Don’t know if the Jay became its breakfast or not.
