My goats are the smartest animals on the farm.  Their powers of reasoning amaze me sometimes.  It only takes doing something different once, and they're on to you.  This doeling has figured out how to get the best hay at feeding time.  As the goats are eating the bale of hay in the feeder, the small alfalfa leaves (which are the best) fall down out of the bale.  They lay on the bottom in a layer of the choicest feed.


Wait for it.......Wait for it.....


Dive in!  She crawls right in under the bale, lays there and eats undisturbed 


Meanwhile, the rest of the herd eats from the top.
