Daddy's boy

One of the great things about living with the horses, is actually just watching them and seeing them interact - be it a herd of dry mares, wet mares and their foals or just a group of spellers who come here to remember that they are indeed horses and not just racing machines.

I spent sometime this morning out with the mum's and their darling foals and even though they are just about a week old, they are now really testing out their mum's mothering abilities to keep the lively youngsters in line.

Take young Jack. As you will see above, he is really testing Gossy to her mothering limits already and if he is anything like his darling dad, she will be in for a fulltime job to keep this young man in line.


*sigh* would you be anywhere but the redzone? (lol)
