A raven flies in front of Temple Butte, seen dimly through rain or snow yesterday.
We got spits and not much else of the “showers” promised by the forecast. … Here’s hoping today’s snow forecast is at least partially accurate.

Just checking what you’re doing back there. … Just in case. … Not that I’m really interested. … Just checking.
Sweet Winona, you beautiful girl. 🙂
This might be the last golden sunshine for a couple of days. We have rain and rain-turning-to-snow in the forecast. We’re ready for more moisture.

Fourth rifle season ended a little past sunset last night – thank goodness. Every year, the human pressure increases. Where once it was horrible only during third season, now all the seasons have their pressures … from the first of September through late November. It’s exhausting for the animals (of which I’m only one two-legged critter).

To catch up with his mare, who calmly walked past me, Corazon had to gallop a short distance to catch up.
I didn’t mind at all. 🙂

I don’t really remember what Seneca was stepping over here while she grazed, but as tall as that grass (still) is, she had to be sure of her hoof placement.
Even as we ease on toward winter, the days are chilly and the nights are below freezing, but the horses take it all in stride.

The warm days are definitely at an end. This day, even without a breeze, was nippy. The horses have pretty good coats and are ready for winter – and still eating last season’s grasses. 🙂

Flash perks up from his nap long enough to give me a handsome look. He has two of Storm’s mares, so at least they’re together.

Juniper is sporting her own unique braids these days.
There’s been a shakeup. Storm is no longer with any of his mares, and the mares are split into two groups, each headed by a young stallion. I don’t know where Storm is, but I hope he’s OK.
