Spring Creek Basin Mustangs

That “blank space” behind Tenaz is a pond. Is water. … WATER.

Not so “blank,” eh? 🙂

Thank you, veterans, for your commitment and your service in support of the freedoms we enjoy as Americans.

From the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs:

Veterans Day continues to be observed on November 11, regardless of what day of the week on which it falls. The restoration of the observance of Veterans Day to November 11 not only preserves the historical significance of the date, but helps focus attention on the important purpose of Veterans Day: A celebration to honor America’s veterans for their patriotism, love of country, and willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good.

Mysterium’s mane is growing out enough that while it’s not lying flat, it’s not straight up like a mohawk anymore … a fact that seems to be contradicted by the above pic! Wind is sometimes hard to convey in a static image, but there you have it.

In some cases, wind precedes “weather,” and “weather,” for us, hopefully, sometimes conveys at least a little moisture. We *always* need it.

How is it that such amazing creatures think they can hide behind something as insubstantial as a dead pinon? Maybe they don’t think much of humans’ vision. I fancy I have a very highly advanced idea of humans’ vision, given what’s very often in my field of vision! 🙂

Two-year-old Dundee has been the bravest of her friends from the very beginning, when she was the first to leap off the trailer to Spring Creek Basin’s welcoming embrace. She’s also taken on the role of protector of her year-younger friends with gusto, and Rowan and Aiyanna look to her for leadership.

Meanwhile, Buckeye finds that managing a band is a far cry from being a bachelor, so he catches his naps when he can!

Gaia and Juniper enjoy a nap in the last light of the day before wandering off to graze as sunshine gave way to night’s shadows.

Coming soon, don’t forget to turn your clocks back. The mustangs don’t know a thing about time change … or time at all, of course. They know there’s never a bad time for a comfortable nap in the quiet sunshine!

Just a spotted little lovely for your Wednesday. You’re welcome. 🙂
