Gettin’ friendly

23 04 2022

Since the girls from Sand Wash Basin arrived, Dundee, who is a year older than Aiyanna and Rowan, has taken a very protective role. Aiyanna warmed up pretty quickly to Buckeye, but Dundee has been more protective of her girls and a little slower to warm up to Buckeye. So on this day, I was kind of quietly thrilled to see her and Buckles getting a little more friendly.





A bit o’ mud ‘n blue

As much as I actively try to catch the light shining through Kwana’s clear blue eyes, it ends up being a random head turn that enables to light to shine so clearly through. 🙂

Happy Earth Day!

Do something kind for yourselves and Earth – our own, collective home range – today!





Peaceful waters

Enough water to wade into = love.





Approach

Sometimes, the light is of such quality that reality is rendered more painterly than realistically. And then even masters admire the works of art created by our Mother Nature.





Where peace reigns

Besties Piedra and Kestrel share a quiet moment on a quiet evening on their home range. For them, everything.





Pure light

How beautiful is Terra in the glorious light?





Admiring the view

Mustangs and light and Spring Creek Basin in Disappointment Valley … all the way to Utah.

Perfection!

From their birth-range of Sand Wash Basin, within sight of Wyoming, to Spring Creek Basin, within sight of Utah, Dundee, Rowan and Aiyanna have come a long way … and continue to live wild and free. 🙂

Renewal of seasons, affirmation of wild.

Happy Easter. 🙂





Caught ‘im nappin’

Again. 🙂

Skywalker doesn’t like to expend too much energy. And who needs to on a warm(ish) spring day when the wind is NOT howling?





This happened!

We interrupt your regularly scheduled brown-landscape post with this view of our black-and-white girl in a very white landscape!

We had hoped for rain – and I admit, I wasn’t very certain of any moisture at all – and we got this!

At the time I was photographing Raven and her band, the wind was blowing the snow sideways, and she and her bandmates were taking shelter in a small copse of pinon and juniper trees, butts to the wind-driven flurries (can’t we get away from that wind? even while it’s snowing?!).





Fine points

A handsome blue-eyed mister never goes amiss, particularly not on a grey day.
