Buckeye was nibbling on galleta near the base of this piñon or juniper tree … and keeping an eye on me at the same time. Never UNaware, those mustangs.

A few of my favorite things

Mustangs, Spring Creek Basin, water and aspen – all in the same view. Many of my favorite things. 🙂

Magic at sunset
29 09 2025
Soooooooooooooooo magical!
Weird distortion courtesy of the crack across my phone camera lens (boo!). Otherwise … beautiful!
Do you see the lingering rainbow? Subtle as sunset light. 🙂
Not-so-subtle sunset colors looking west!
And ending the day with a view back to the east/southeast.
Blessed. No other word for it.

Corazon and his trusty lieutenant, Maiku, rarely are this close together, let alone posing so nicely.
Stout, handsome pinto boys. 🙂

She’s the glow

Gorgeous Winona. Again, are more words needed?
My folks have been visiting this week, and we’ve been taking care of lots of projects, so that’s why I’ve been a little quiet on the blog lately and not very wordy with the posts. 🙂

Handsome Flash …
Sometimes, that seems to be just about all I need to say. 🙂

Sunset wander
25 09 2025
Tenaz grazes his way down a hillside at sunset on another peaceful evening in Spring Creek Basin. … Nearly silhouetted, he could be anymustang on anyrange in the American West. We cherish the freedom of them all.

Silver thread

It’s in the details: Mz. Madison is sporting a bit of silver in her mane. … It happens to us all. 🙂

Sun-touched

Sancho napping on the side of an open drainage, just below the top, sunlit and relaxed and peaceful.

Great day for a visit
21 09 2025
A dramatic background any time, but wow, did we get some dramatic light on McKenna Peak and Temple Butte to perfectly highlight Maiku and his compadres.
“We” were these fine folks from Four Corners Back Country Horsemen, who came out for a visit to Spring Creek Basin:
They didn’t bring horses to ride, but they saw a fair number of our fair mustangs. 🙂
Left to right: Marlo and Gail; Tim and Linda; yours truly; Patty Ann and her daughter, Chelsea; Larry and riding partner Jeff.
I do love showing off Spring Creek Basin and our wonderful mustangs, and a couple of bands gave us a good look!
