Leroy/ Camera Critters

Leroy on a farm just east of East Gwillimbury

The day I met Leroy he was being bullied by a jealous horse who wanted me to take his photo rather than the donkey's. Hmmm. But, as it turns out, Leroy is the real KING of the paddock and no one should push him too far. Leroy's hooves are powerful!

Look at all the burrs on Leroy's face!

  1. Sometimes asses can be very difficult...usually, though, it's the horses that push them around...I think.

    With all those burrs, may this chap is a burro?

    Cute shot, EG.

    Have a great weekend!

  18. I have never had any experience with donkeys...a friend of my brother had a mule however and its name was D*@$ It...so that tells you something about its attitude. It was always a pain to catch.
