Camera Critters prompt #18

Shoreham is a pretty little village on the coast of Westernport Bay, Mornington Peninsula. Here you will find olde worldes ~ a rambling General Store and homes from yesteryear with just the soft intrusion of more modern, unpretentious homes. Most roads from the main Shoreham Road are just like tracks to beautiful vistas of the sea, looking out to Phillip Island. And along those tracks are fascinating farmlets on rolling hills and some rather cute, friendly critters like this one.

Give me a home by the sea
Where trees, grasses and flowers
Roam to the skyline
Where animals play in peace

And I will live in happiness
Freely

I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

looks likes a donkey! beautiful critters.
Such gentle creatures, beuatifully captured
Interesting, and gentle-looking animal. Nice photos of the area, which sounds quite a lovely place.
looks like a friendly guy - lovely scenery
What a cute burro! I wonder if he's stubborn? Loved your poem.
I recently read that donkeys are very friendly.
I played too :)
whichever one he is, he sure is a cutie! Great pics!
Mine is up too. :)
Very precious photos. Some people who live near me have a donkey out with their horses. I keep meaning to get a photo, but when I have the camera with me, I never see it.
He's sure a pretty boy.
Those are really good shots of the donkey. I can't wait to see one in real.
I will be content, for now, to live near the sea in the paintings on my walls...lucky girl...

He's so cute!! Great photos
Donkeys have a cross on their back and I don't think burros do. I see a cross on this ones back. Very cute photo either way.
