Lonesome Donkey
Filed in Animals, Canon 20D, Ireland, Kerry, Nature, Photos, Sigma 10-20, Slea HeadLonesome Donkey A donkey, alone in his field. There’s a horse in the background but he’s being fed. The donkey doesn’t get anything. Poor thing. Spotted on the road around Slea Head at the end of the Dingle Peninsula, Co. Kerry. That’s the last of the donkey pictures. For now.
