On our last day we got a tour of a Nubian Goat-scaping project at Long Point reserve. The goats are small and very friendly. Jonah loved the goats.
It’s a landscape call a “frost bottom.” Once mainly grassy it is now being taken over by small oaks. The goats are there to eat the oak so the grasses can return.
I wonder what it looks like in winter.
