Boldly...Wildly...Beautifully

Life isn't meant
to be lived perfectly
but merely to be lived.
Boldly, wildly, beautifully,
uncertainly, imperfectly,
magically lived.
...Mandy Hale

There is a lot going on in this photo. Goats are funny.

Goats have been clearing the overgrown brush in Sacramento County. The herds provide a sustainable way to clear the land to prevent fires.

These voracious herbivores are in high demand to devour weeds and shrubs that have proliferated across California after a drought-busting winter of heavy rain and snow. The goats cleared 408 acres of open space in the city of Sacramento last year. I have seen them grazing from May-October so far.

I enjoy seeing the goats as they get moved to different areas. You are not suppose to feed them but I took 5 stuffed bags of delicious rose bush clippings that disappeared in minutes!

I have noticed more goat herds here too. They are a great source to cleanup discarded Christmas trees. I wonder if they will eat fallen autumn leaves.

@joansmor I think they eat anything and everything! :) They loved the rose petals, rose bush clippings, thrones and all. They do not get bothered by it. I looked it up before I took it to them.
