Seeing Spots on Monday's Country Back Roads


For a long time, I have watched and waited to photograph this little fella. In case you are wondering, this is a Spotted Ass.


Every time I passed by him, on the country road, he was just too far away to get a good photograph.

I spotted him (no pun intended) several months ago and fell in love with him.

His partner, in the pasture, was not as co-operative. I'm thinking you will still be impressed with his spots and longhorns, that is, Texas Longhorns.


Don't you agree he is adorable? Definitely worth the wait......

    I have never seen a spotted donkey before. At first I thought it must be a mule. Good photos!

    First time I've ever seen a spotted one! Great shots. Love seeing the beautiful wildflowers, too. I think I see blue bonnets!

      Hi Cheryl...I thought the wildflowers would add to the photos...If you click on "Spotted Ass", it will take you to a link. Donkeys can be real loving animals. They can also help protect baby calves from predators.

    Meggie, he is so handsome. I love his colouring and that compact body. Then we have his friend, the mighty Longhorn! Lovely photographs of two beautiful creatures....well spotted!
