Kestrel looks at her band mates to see if they see what she sees, and whether they’re alarmed and she ought to be. 🙂
They weren’t, and she wasn’t.

Comanche and Piedra make a silver pair, don’t they? Love those faces!

Sweetness, that greasewood ain’t hidin’ nuthin’. 🙂
Burrs are still burrowing their way into the ponies’ forelocks as they stretch and reach for greening grass.

Killian isn’t a big boy, but he’s awfully cute. 🙂

Houdini doesn’t like to wait … on photographers or other admirers.

Storm found a couple of trees the other day with multiple branches that were good for scratching multiple itches. Check out the lip. 🙂
As you can see from the trunk of the tree and the ground around him, we got a bit of snow. Most of it didn’t last long, but in the upper parts of the basin (and greater Disappointment Valley), there was up to an inch or so of dusty white stuff.
Before our little cold snap, the horses were starting to shed!

Hollywood’s mane catches the evening light as he follows his band through the winter-golden grasses.

Hayden naps after a chat with Tenaz. He picked a good spot. 🙂
(This boy is the king of naps … and has been since he was a baby.)

Do you have a friend who would rather avoid the camera? She turns away. She tries to hide her face. She makes goofy faces.
But you know she’s beautiful, so you keep trying. And sometimes you catch her in a moment of softness.
Our Miss Chipeta is a little camera-shy, but we love her. 🙂
