Do you like to watch baby animals playing? All babies play. As they do, they not only exercise muscles and joints, they learn skills that will stand them in good stead later. We stopped to watch these lambs playing some years ago. I'm not sure what they were learning really but perhaps they were just plain old enjoying themselves. Even one mother walked up on the fallen trunk then carefully walked off again. Maybe her child called for her to 'come and watch me, Mum'. Anyway we were entertained for quite some minutes. One little fellow fell off and his mate looked down as if quite concerned he shook himself off and hurried back on to the trunk again. I think little goats are delightful to watch as they play. Do you have a photo of puppies or kittens playing?

That's really cute for them to do new things. They are like toddlers do things out of curiosity.

They have to go poking their noses in don't they? As if they're looking for some mischief to get into.

Lambs do seem to go hyper sometimes, don't they? As you say they are fun to watch.

Goats are even more hyper I think - and so funny sometimes. More agile and balanced than sheep.

Awww, how cute! I bet they were fun to watch. My two dogs play together all the time. Here is a picture of Daisy (smaller blonde haired dog) trying to get Bella (brown and tan) to play with her.

@JudyEv Sometimes Daisy is a bother to Bella but most of the time they get along great and Bella seems to have more energy since we got Daisy.

Old dogs must curse the young ones sometimes. The young are sometimes a great bother.

@simone10 I have heard other people say this. That getting a young dog seems to give the older dog a new lease of life.

I have tons of pictures of my dog playing when he was a puppy and some of him as an adult dog still playing and being silly =]

@JudyEv It rained yesterday and it's raining today, they stay inside, I have to wait. I had fun yesterday watching the cat of our neighbor who tried to open our French windows to sneak in, he was funny.

@LadyDuck They know what needs to be done don't they? Herc knows it is the chain that keeps his gate closed and he nuzzles away at it trying to work out how to open it.

@crazyhorseladycx I watched a great series of photos this morning. A little dog walks next door, backs at the gate and a black and white cat comes out from the garden, They greet each other then go for a walk together. I was nearly in tears, it was just so lovely.

I found the photo I was looking for. I stopped in the country and got out of the car to get a good photo when this dog came running and growling...a protector of the sheep from crazy women and dangerous threats.. He scared me.

@PainsOnSlate There are several breeds whose instinct is to protect the herd they're put in with. Maremmas are one of the breeds and look like the one in your photo. He is on full alert isn't he? I would have been back in the car quick smart.

They're having fun aren't they? Most dogs seem to like tug-of-wars. I suppose that should be 'tugs-of-war'.

@DianneN It can be if you're dying for an ice-cream and you're held up taking umpteen photos of a bridge. Lambs are okay. I was wrong to say 'wasted' in this instance.

No, I once had kittens (well, my cat actually had them), and I took pictures. My dog found the roll of film and ripped it to shreds. She hated the kittens.

@JudyEv Ha Ha. No. I realized, however, that the dog was far too smart. How did she know that the film contained their pictures?

@ElizabethWallace It's interesting isn't it? Maybe she watched you pointing a thingamajig at her rivals then taking something out of the thingamajig and thought she'd destroy it. It would be nice to know what was going on in her tiny mind.

They seem to need to warm up before bedtime - at least they do here and all of them rush helter and skelter up and down ditches etc. You can't help but delight in the fun they're having.
