Wild, home

What stories can this guy tell? 🙂 Handsome Storm is the strong, silent type.





Rain dance

Terra looks like she could be doing the basin shuffle, enticing the rain to fall over us in Spring Creek Basin? Maybe if we all join her, we might feel the moisture. 🙂





Chasing

31 05 2020

Kwana had a little chat with another stallion, then made a bee-line back to his mares, who moved away from the source of conflict … at his very direct request.

We had some very promising clouds, especially toward evening. The wind picked up, the radar showed lovely green … and not a drop fell in the real world. Yep, it’s still dry.





Across the top

The day I took this pic was yet another red-flag-warning day (strong winds, low humidity, warm temps – ripe for high fire danger), but Gaia looks unruffled as she follows the band while grazing along the top of a hill.

Gaia emerged from winter looking a bit lean and scruffy, but with a diet of even sparse spring greens, she’s looking very healthy.





On we go

Maiku gallops back to his band (he’s a lieutenant) after a chat with another stallion. That’s prominent Brumley Point in the background.

We’re warm and dry and doing socially distanced dances for rain!





All one

In the magic of the light we all share, from the same radiant source, aren’t we all the same rich colors after all?





Showoff

Killian shows off his home on the range.

It looks inviting, doesn’t it? 🙂

and this …

led to a little of this yesterday afternoon. 🙂 Note the rain in the background. We did get a little dampness.

We’ve had a run of mares lately on the blog, but with ladies as lovely as ours, who’s complaining? 🙂 This is sweet Juniper. I’m not sure what she was looking at because the band is mostly between us and to the left. I think maybe sometimes they’re just enjoying the view. Yep, I had a pretty great view!

Shadow was being particularly antisocial, and although Killian let her have her space and stayed with his other band members, he kept an eye on her, which was a boon for this photographer – and you readers!

Could he BE any more handsome??
