So I'm in the laundry room folding clothes

and look out the window and see my little goat family peacefully grazing in the west pasture. Thought it would make a nice picture so grabbed the camera. I opened the window to get a clear shot...they heard me...so much for a peaceful picture. "What's mom doing!?"

Maybe because of the goat skull over the door? Kind of a warning what happens to bad goats? I have a Scottish Blackface (horned sheep) skull by our front door. The sheep stay off the porch when they get loose - not!
