Such a nice stallion and such a nice time of day. We found Hercules and his family in late afternoon in the Barcus area. All was peaceful. Perfect way to end our day in the horse range. (Piceance-East Douglas HMA in Colorado).

Wild Horses Overhead :)
June 30, 2019
An early morning encounter with horses on a high ridge above us. Piceance-East Douglas, HMA. (Colorado, 6/2019)
(click on the photos for larger, sharper views)
The band stallion is the gray (almost white) guy on the far right (known as Seven).
I’ve been spotted!
This mare is known as Honey.
This little one is getting angry, pinned ears from a mare that is not his mother.
Hurrying towards mom.
Last year’s foals. The perlino has blue eyes and the sun makes her squint.
The little bay foal on the far right does belong to “angry ears.” 😉
The band is being followed by a gray, bachelor stallion.
Coming down from the ridge.
And into a small meadow where we left them to graze. A cute parting glance from the youngest member of the band. 🙂

Going for Water
November 4, 2018
Last summer, as we were driving around a corner in the Barcus Creek area of Piceance, we startled a band on their way to drink. We stopped, backed up a bit and then watched them charge down the hill and make a wide loop around us to the water tank. These are all members of Hercules’ band.
Hercules. He’s a favorite out there. 🙂
It can be somewhat stressful to watch the little ones come racing down, but they did just fine. Amazing.
Leading the way.
Watching over his family as they drink since there are other bands waiting their turn. He’s an awesome stallion.

Handsome – Spring, 2018
May 19, 2018
“Handsome,” Piceance-East Douglas HMA, Colorado. Hadn’t been able to find him since August of last year. It was so good to see him this Spring! He lost a bit of his tail, but gained 2 family members.
Handsome and his family were near a black stallion with a large band. While we were watching, the black stallion charged for Handsome’s girls, but even though Handsome has a chronic limp, that boy can get after it when he needs to. He gets the girls going and out of the area.
Safely away with his little family.
Until next time ‘ol boy…
