We got some rain! The moisture is a boon for things like locoweed (pale-yellow flowering plant seen at Maiku’s feet), but it also brings up the grasses and helps all the forage.
You can see remnants of snow in the upper background. That’s far out of Spring Creek Basin, but it’s nice to see it lingering in May. And the mountains all still have visible snow.
It’s a pretty nice spring. 🙂
Ty was on his ridge, and we were on ours, and thus did peace reign.
If it looks green, it is. We wouldn’t mind more rain. That’s not greedy – just hopeful. 🙂
Madison proves the beauty of “just another bay mustang.”
Tenaz snakes a wayward mare back to the band and out of reach of a nearby bachelor.
Big black beautiful Bounce.
Gorgeous wild pony on a gorgeous evening in paradise – aka Spring Creek Basin.
Madison and Temple.
These girls grew up together, then separated for a while … and now are together again.
Mares and mamas – the heart of the home (on the range). 🙂
Did we mention that the gnats are out?
They’re out.
Wild boy Copper isn’t fooled by camo tree branches.
To be clear, I wasn’t sneaking up on the boy; they just happened to be between us, and he just happened to stop nearly precisely at the V in the tree trunk. I moved to get both eyes in the frame and snapped his pic!
Chrome walks past one of Spring Creek Basin’s prominent landmarks: Brumley Point. It looks a little bit different from most other vantage points, which is how it’s most often seen.
We did get some rain, and it’s looking lovely and green out there. 🙂
Without mustangs, it would be just another pretty landscape. But WITH mustangs there, it’s a landscape imbued with magic. And we don’t always need to see them to know they’re there and feel their good vibes in our hearts.
