glenatronSeems like everyone is posting pictures today, and being part of everyone I guess that means I should be doing the same.
Zorro tries to sabotage the electric fence while it's still in the barrow, Small keeps watch.
Obligatory eye picture. I know it's as original as slicing bread, but pictures like this are a magnet to anyone who takes pictures of their horses.
Not a great picture artistically but hey, we have a black pheasant that comes to our yard a lot and that's pretty cool. I think it's just a melanistic common pheasant.
"Hat? I never saw a hat! Are you sure you were wearing one when you came into the field?"
Directly after this was taken Small commenced to rub the hat in question along the floor so it was covered in mud as well as half-eaten grass.
Joe Pony! He is a tiny bit muddy.
He may be happily retired but he can still remember how to do lateral work on a soft line.
He could only be comfortably ridden in walk, but he did brilliantly at that.
A happy team.
We saw three buzzards over the field the other day as well ( this is exciting because buzzards have only just started to recolonise this part of the country after the whole DDT thing ) but you don't get to see a photo of those because the only picture I got of them turned out to be a picture of a blurry Small looking down his nose into the camera.

Date: 11 Feb 2008 21:49 (UTC)For some strange reason, my boys have not felt the need to get very muddy this winter. I suspect it might have something to do with my mother's aversion to trekking out in the nasty cold, wet, windy weather...

Pheasants are pretty. We have them here as well, but I've never seen one up close.

Date: 12 Feb 2008 11:16 (UTC)Quite often you seem to get fairly tame pheasants around yards here ( often because they've got a better chance of not being shot ) but the black one is something I've not seen before. He's not very tame, though, that picture was zoomed a fair distance and is as close to him as I can get.
