Description Let us return to the goat couple which you already know: [link]
When I first saw them, they were lying on that table like this. Does that not look like a strained relationship? They were certainly not looking eye to eye ...
Taken near Nieuwersluis/The Netherlands.

Wonderful capture! I must say I think if you cropped it in closer, you'd remove the distractions in the background and have a stronger image.

i don't think it's strained relationship, they are just watching each other's back

Perhaps they are, but they are also a long-living couple! No more urge to look lovingly into each otherΒ΄s eyes every moment!

Goats are one of the more entertaining groups of animals on this earth. I used to have pygmies, so this picture brought joy into my heart.

goats, like dogs go on lookout position when in pairs--that is all--nothing strained 'cept your brain -
from projecting onto the exterior--

I suppose you are quite right, but this is a special couple whom I know for years now. So one tends to invent a little story ... What would life be without such stories!
