If you don’t realize from Sundance’s march that he means business, please allow me to translate from the original and ancient mustang: Sundance means business.
Remember the young guy wandering around wreaking havoc among bands a few nights/posts ago? This (above situation) was soon after I arrived on the scene, so I don’t know the exact extent of his havoc (I do know that I had seen his usual-pal way west on my way into the basin and had wondered where this young fellow was …). But although he was a fair distance from his family, that was too close for Sundance, who decided to have a little meeting with the youngster.
Soon after Sundance’s encounter, Storm reinforced the message, after which the young stallion went off to look for other targets – which he found in the form a big group of a couple of bands heading this way from an evening drink at a nearby pond. THEY ended up fleeing across a deep arroyo, up over a little table-top end of a ridge, down and through another deep arroyo and up another ridge.
Meanwhile, young master headed back to his original targets – or nearby – as seen in the pix of the evening of majesty a few nights ago.
“Never give up”: motto of young stallions everywhere. 🙂
(And oh my GOSH, I adore the image of Sundance framed by Temple Butte and McKenna Peak! Classics, all!)
Spring Creek Basin Mustangs 
Sundance. Temple Butte. McKenna Peak. This is a Spring Creek Basin HMA calendar pic if there ever was one! And as to the young mister prowling for girls…may he find a few loves of his own. 😁
If I did my calendars vertically, this would be a contender for sure! I had to lie on my belly and shoot vertically because I was uphill of him and couldn’t get far enough away to get the whole view. 😄
Sounds like a soap opera of wild horse life! Always trying to get someone else’s gal!
Ha ha ha! You’re right! 😁
Wh

I think I’ve finally found “the one.” What a beautiful, beautiful guy he is.
He so definitely is. Mostly he’s pretty laid back … but don’t come after his family. He became a band stallion fairly late in life, and his mares and daughters adore him.
As would I.
