And don't you dare move!

Goats and other grazing animals, like deer and cattle, will often tuck their babies in a secluded area and leave them while they go off to graze. These three little ones are hidden by the water trough to await mom's return.  The babies will stay there for hours without moving at all. The camera noise made one of these lift his head, but the rest stayed absolutely still. When the herd returns, they'll be hopping and running all over the place! I'm not sure what she tells them, but they sure do listen!
