For As Far As The Eye Can See

wild horse photography of mare and newborn in oat pasture — Finding this mare in a field of oats gave me a real opportunity to see her new foal. Only a couple of days old in this picture, I had been trying to get a glimpse of this filly; her mother was always in a hurry to move away when I showed up and kept herself between me and the foal until she was out of sight. She is an elusive mare with a newborn so I started calling her Nemisis.

I call him Gem, because he reminds me of an uncut gem. He’s rough and clunky looking but his brilliant sparkle shines through. He’s ugly-cute and irresistible.

Every year I post about horses eating thistle as a first choice when spring grass is abundant. I am constantly amazed they eat these spiked, tough, nettle-haired plants. This is Ruby scoring blooms.
