Spring Creek Basin Mustangs

Mid-morning naps!

Trying to find some time to get to some photos I’ve taken in the last few weeks that haven’t seen beyond my memory card or hard drive. This was such a lovely morning, two, maybe three weeks ago now. Corona was half-heartedly poking at Kreacher while he tried to nap among his girls. He was almost completely unperturbed. Their faces were close, but she was almost totally in his shadow from the rising sun.

He is soooo good with her … but I can’t help but remember how good Duke also was with her.

I was so intent on capturing Kreach and his lovely stepdaughter through the lens that it took me a minute to realize Kootenai had laid down just beyond them.

Do you want to sit down? Relax? Take a little mid-morning nap?

I did exactly that. I joined them … they joined me …?

Mona laid down, too.

Corona came over for a mid-morning snack, then she laid down, three!

Little peek-a-boo miss. Can you see her wavy forelock?

Are you sleepy yet? 🙂

Kootenai, who had been napping longest, eventually got up and stretched – arched her neck and stretched one hind leg waaaay back – and walked over to stand behind these two. Kreach thought Raven was being neglected, so he walked over to her, but she gave him the cold shoulder and walked off to graze. I could have stayed there forever in that long, perfect moment under the morning sun, but I left the girls to their naps and carried away that beautiful morning as memory … and pictures to share.
