Lesbian Summers

It's the first day of Summer, and apparently a young animal's thoughts turn to love ... Sapphic love, that is!

I'm home all day now working on the project so I end up keeping an eye on the animals a lot more often. And apparently, two females who are in heat will often ... er, let's see, how to word this on what is ostensibly a PG-rated blog ... imitate the mating habits more usually seen involving a male and a female.

The donkeys are doing it. The dogs are doing it. And I'm not sure, but I have my suspicions about two of the barn swallows.

I was a bit shocked the first time, but at this point it's sort of become old hat. I know for the dogs it's a dominance thing, but I'm not sure what's going on in the donkeys' minds. Or whatever other part of the anatomy is concerned. The saddest thing is when one of the full-sized jennets "introduces herself" to Charity, the little miniature female. That brings all new meaning to the phrase "She ain't heavy, she's my sister".

I don't have any large metaphysical insights to draw from this. It's just weird. But lesbian donkey sex is certainly not something I ever thought happened back in the full-time computer nerd days.

Well, ok, there was that one ill-advised Google Image search, but you can't prove that without an FBI wiretap!

Why does a certain a Spinal Tap song come to mind?

Jeff, this is supposed to be our little secret. A few more posts like this and you'll have to add a guest house!
