Rumplepuff helping me finish the fringes by tugging on the strands.

As I was finishing up my latest weaving project, Rumplepuff decided to jump in and help — or at least he was convinced he was helping. He watched me twist the warp threads with great interest and when he felt I wasn’t doing it right, he pecked and tugged the strands into place.

A very pleased Rumplepuff.

In cases such as these, he always seems extremely pleased with himself.

Luna with her friend.

As I said, Luna is a very unique sheep. I’m not even so sure she knows she’s a sheep as you can see by this picture of her with one of her friends.

The geese will snap with their bills when they are defending themselves, their water pot, their sitting spot, etc. I have seen Luna approach such a protected area only to have a goose peck her face. This seemed to have the opposite effect to what the goose intended. Luna seemed to think this was some kind of massage therapy. She simply stood there and soaked up the attention. Perhaps this is how they became friends.
