Dressed for the occasion!

We photographed these donkeys on our way into St Martin on the Ile de Ré...


Once into the town itself one of the donkeys was on display and he had clearly made an effort to dress for the occasion...

 
Well we've never seen that before... Pants on a donkey!

A pictorial shaggy-donkey story...

The last time we went to the Ile de Ré the donkeys were wearing gingham pyjama legs so obviously the stripes are in fashion this year !!

The interesting thing is, that was in 2007. Prior to that we had visited the same place many times, year after year, and con't remember seeing the pyjama legs - I'm sure we would have remembered them. So we wondered if it was a fairly recent "custom" !!
