Seems 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.

Joe Pony! I miss Joe posts. Glad to hear he's doing so well. And he looks proper muddy. :D

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...

His coat is literally 4" long. I have never seen a horse so hairy. You can see it in his beard but he is entirely like that.

And of course he is shedding like there's no tomorrow.

It would be a bit like wearing thermal clothes in late spring, I suspect. I guess when you've got that much hair, you've got to start shedding out early in order to not get overheated in the spring.
