Washington's Birthplace, Part 2

In Part 1, I showed you some of the buildings in Washington's Birthplace National Monument, along with the obelisk at its entrance.  Now in Part 2, I introduce you to some of the inhabitants, starting with this ox.  In the background to the right, partially obscured by fence posts, are two sheep.

Unlike the oxen, the sheep are allowed to wander around in the same space as human visitors.  Here are a few of them near some trees.

Here's the ox again, with another one in the background.

In a mesh enclosure with some chickens was another group of birds.  I don't know what type they are.  UPDATE:  Smokie has suggested that these birds might be guinea fowl.

And finally, a horse is a horse, of course, of course, and so are these two.
