A Wether of Earthsea

What put the idea into my head for this blog was eating...er...reading Ursula LeGuin's classic, A Wizard of Earthsea. This book introduces Ged (Sparrowhawk), a humble goatherd with an innate talent for magic.

His first less-than-ept attempt at casting a spell caused all his goats to crowd around him and hound him all the way back to the village. He must have had cookies in his pocket!

This still from the movie looks delicious...er...intriguing:

Then there is this saucy little shot:

I think I recognize this goat. I wonder what other movies she has been in?
