Big sister is SO good with little brother, and mama Alegre takes full advantage of Gaia as babysitter.

Just like first-time mom Piedra has already learned that Baylee makes a great auntie to her little boy!

It was a windy day, and I just love her tousled look here.

Roach and Poco are still hanging out with Hollywood’s band as their adopted family. I won’t be sorry to see it last awhile. They’re seeing some new country, and they’re not alone.

Had a bit of a scare Sunday when artist Karen Keene Day and I found Duke alone and obviously searching for Raven and the baby, but on our way out, we saw them through the binoculars, reunited. I’m happy to see these ponies sticking together as a family, too. Mama Raven has relaxed her high-alert mode, and during this visit, she was super about showing off her treasure! If you look past the obvious color difference (!), don’t they look so similar!?Β 

I’m sure sorry about the vague and limited reports of the ponies lately, but I’ve been crazy busy, and now I’m going on vacation – a much-needed vacation to family and horses I can touch any time I want. πŸ™‚ I’ll miss the Spring Creek Basin gang, and I’ll try to post some pix while I’m away. We’re still waiting on Jif to deliver her bundle of joy … I’m not so worried about Kestrel … but I think we might get a double surprise in the not-too-distant future.

And Two Boots’ boy has a new name! But so I don’t spill the beans locally, I’ll wait till after the Four Corners Back Country Horsemen’s announcement of the name at their meeting before I break the news here. I think you’ll like it. πŸ™‚

TJ – These are just about the MOST PRECIOUS and engaging photos of wild ponies that we’ve seen ANYWHERE!! Gosh, how fast they’re growing!! Can’t believe how tiny Corona and Sage were when we saw them in April and just look at them now! Love the “story” you’ve told here – GOOD JOB!! We miss being in the Basin and can’t wait to get back!

They’re totally growing fast; they’re so big! Funny to look back and see their “baby” pix! πŸ™‚ It’s cool to see the dynamic with at least a couple of babies/yearlings or 2-year-olds in the bands.
I miss being there, too, now, but it’s great being home!
