Here is a pygmy goat

:) I was over at a friends house tonight and they had pygmy goats--so I took a quick shot of one of them.

It's a lovely photo, I'm very partial to goats. Did you get any other shots that show the size of the goat? I've never even heard of a Pygmy Goat.

Hi Einstein,
Thanks for the compliment--I really had the wrong lens for this shot (200 f/2.8 II)--as the little guy wanted some handouts from me and would get far enough away for me to get a shot. Dinner was awaiting--so I quickly gave it up.
So, I don't have any pics that would show how big he is, which is about the size of a large sheltie dog. Pretty small.
