I’m rarely out in Spring Creek Basin during midday, but sometimes, needs (and other scheduled events) must.
The heat waves were tremendous (argh – this warm this early is not cool (!)), but isn’t scruffy Corazon looking handsome as he transitions from his winter coat to his summer sleek!?
There!
See the green?
The mustangs (including Buckeye) are chasing it everywhere. 🙂
Maia.
Muddy, beautiful, gorgeous girl. 🙂
Another image of Tenaz from the windy evening a few evenings ago – and highlighting McKenna Peak and Temple Butte (this was after the rain and before the snow!).
By the state of Tenaz’s flying tail, you can see how windy it ended up Wednesday as the rains were clearing.
And can you see the green blush? It’s harder to see through the images than it is to see in reality.
We got rain. 🙂
Later, as the sky was clearing, while waves of rain were still pushing across Disappointment Valley, the magic appeared:
The wide, wide, super-wide views. Even with my phone, I had to go wiiiiiide to get the entire rainbow – and its double – in view.
My unicorn (otherwise known as Winona). 🙂
Yesterday might have been April Fools’ Day, but the magic was real! SO incredibly thankful for the rain (very light but most of the day … and after dark again). The world instantly looks greener.
Pretty palomino girl Rowan in the very-green budding greasewood. The mustangs LOVE greasewood, and I have to think there’s no better taste (palatability?) than when it’s first budding and yummy after a long season of it being just a woody shrub.
Happy April 1!
Mustang. (Skywalker)
Cliffs. (rimrocks on the western boundary)
Mountains. (La Sals. Utah)
All right, all right, all is right with the world. 🙂
Temple negotiates the boulders on the lower shoulders of Filly Peak while grazing with her band.
Quiet girl Piedra on a gorgeous evening when there was still snow on the far (FAR and well outside Spring Creek Basin) ridges. Most of the band was napping, and it was just beautifully peaceful. (I forgot about this pic, but Piedra, in her peaceful semi-slumber, deserves to be seen.)
