Happy birthday, Hannah!

7 04 2010

Little Miss Leggy was born about April 8, which makes her birthday Thursday. But I’ll be in the basin, so I’m posting her birthday announcement a day early.

What a wee little lass in the great big wild!

No shortage of sassiness here … This one has sass times 10! She’s definitely more outgoing than either of her sisters.

Our lovely Hannah, whose pictures have graced many of this blog’s posts, was named after an 11-year-old girl I’ve never met. Hannah-the-girl donated $100 of her babysitting money to our Colorado chapter of the National Mustang Association that we may put it toward bettering the horses’ lives. (We are trying very hard to do just that!) I think of Hannah-the-girl quite a lot and her generous donation … and I’m bonkers over our Hannah-girl. πŸ™‚

It should be noted that Hannah (and Ember and Kestrel – at least) are daughters of Luna, who was introduced to Spring Creek Basin from Sand Wash Basin in 2001 with two other mares (both now gone). Hopefully they’ll all have the opportunity to contribute their genetics in the future.

Happy birthday, cheeky girl!

I love Hannah! What awesome photos! You really captured her cuteness! She is so girly looking. TJ, what kind of camera, lens do you use? I am ready for a “real” camera (I think) and would like to know the best for wild hose photography. Thanks! Nancy (-:
