As if on cue, a mob of horses file orderly into the post-dawn sunlight. Sheltering and grazing on the moister shaded grass at night is common but once daylight comes, the horses enjoy a sun bath and a stroll.

At only nine days old this self-appointed greeter for the herd welcomes a new addition. Using her big whinnies, she called over and over to the newcomer. As you can see, the mature mares were unfazed, but the littlest one seemed tuned in. A gregarious herd mate greets the brand new curiosity in the herd. This bay really has no boundaries among her superiors in age ..read more
