Batisse the goat is the regimental mascot of the Royal 22e Régiment. He participates in the changing of the guard ceremony which is held daily in the summer at the Citadelle in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. The original Batisse was presented to the unit by Queen Elizabeth II in 1955. That goat was the descendant of a Tibetan goat given to Queen Victoria by the Shah of Iran in 1844. AIMG_1833

It was a gray and rainy day and I did not hold out much hope for good pictures. However, the gray was a perfect background for the stunning uniforms of the Royal 22e Régiment's changing of the guard ceremony which is held daily in the summer at the Citadelle in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada.
