When heavy rains fall, this temporary pond in the goat pasture fills up. I built this pond with a wheelbarrow and my trusty wolverine spade.

Japanese White Birch Catkins
The male catkins on the Japanese White Birch trees are opening up this month. They don’t last very long until they fall to the ground and some of the goats may eat up the spent catkins.
Snow Grazing
The goats didn’t want to wait for the snow to melt. They went out onto the snowy pasture to eat any green blades of grass they can see.
Fall Grazing
With the snow melted, the goats have been able to continue to graze on the pastures.
Subzero Sunbathing
This morning was frigid, with temps below zero. That is typically unusual in March. The cat climbed up high to soak in the solar warmth, while the goats were outside, too, hoping to feel the March Sun.
Goat Color
Various beautiful goats are hanging out on the farm.
Port-A-Hut
This month a rusted out Port-A-Hut the goats were using was replaced. We moved this Port-A-Hut, since it was not getting used anymore. It replaced the worn out Port-A-Hut.
Bumper Crop Acorns
A Bur Oak tree in the goat pasture has produced a lot of acorns. The goats have enjoyed eating them. Some have fallen over the fence in the corn field, where the goats can not reach them.
Goat Trap
A goat was enjoying some food in the feeder. But then proceeded to push through the opening and get stuck in there. Goats are fun to watch. They loved to run around on recently cut pasture and have been enjoying eating there.
Corn Cob Feast
A by-product of sweet corn are the corn cobs. The goats quickly consume all the cobs I feed them.
