Puck's Farm critters

I was driving slowly down the 11th Concession yesterday and passed Puck's Farm.   I noticed several of the animals in the pasture to the north of the barns.   There were horses, cows, a donkey and geese.   Thinking there might be a chance for a photo, I backed up, got out of the Jeep  and walked to the fence with my camera.   As I stood there contemplating the bucolic, but chilly scene, the animals all started to head my way.   After a couple minutes, there was a horde of critters up against the fence, eyeing me expectantly.   I introduced myself and scratched as many heads as I could.   These friendly creatures are, of course, quite used to people wandering all over the Puck's Farm grounds.   They certainly seemed to be making me feel welcome...and it felt really good.
