22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
The Good Scratch

I spent a day at The White Rock Horse Rescue, in Yucca Valley, where are more than just horses. There had been some curious goats following me around that day, and I looked over to find one of them taking a moment in the setting sun enjoying something universal to all creatures on earth, a good scratch.
