Annie’s kid, Sally, was never one to stand still and pose for pictures. I figured I’d get a picture while she was by her grazing mom and cousin. When I got the pictures downloaded on my computer, I found she had two orbs floating by of her. Probably the spirits of her aunt and cousin.
I confess this one is not fiction. The picture is SOOC; I never edit. You can barely see Sally behind the orbs. Sally’s mom is the big goat on the left. Sally was standing between where I buried her aunt and cousin (Mother and twin to the big goat on the right). Do you have any real Halloween ghost stories?

nice. interesting to wonder…what are those glowing orbs…hmm…sorry about her mom & dad though…
That is certainly spooky.
Who knew that goats could be so scary?
Love your weekly Farm Fotos…
Excellent 55 Teresa.
Thanks for playing, and have a Kick Ass Week-End!
That’s eerie! And makes for a perfect spooky 55!
Ooooh, goat spirits have orbs? Great 55!
I’ve taken enough pictures to know that those orbs are usually just light reflecting off (especially when using a flash) bits of floating debris, some too small to see.
(Outside, with goats grazing? There’s gonna be floating debris!)
Not that I disbelieve in spirits, I just don’t think they can be photographed.
I have to say, I’ve taken thousands of pictures of goats in the barnyard, and I’ve never had orbs before. It was just after a rain–no dust; it was during the day–no flash or bugs that tend to look like orbs.
crazy! and very timely for halloween.
Spooky!
It must be the whole devil and the cloven hooves thing.
The devil you say!
That’s freaky!
