Frolicking Filly

Is there anything that can bring a smile like a youngster with a “wild hair?” This little filly felt the urge and I was lucky to be standing by watching…with a camera. 🙂 (Piceance-East Douglas HMA, CO., June, 2019)

Wild Horses Overhead :)

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. 🙂

Piceance Bachelor Boys

I try very hard not to sneak up on horses, but these two bachelor boys were so intent on eating, that they barely noticed my approach. When they did, they were a bit startled and briefly bolted.

Look at the flexion in his body as he scrambles away.

They didn’t go far and since I didn’t make a move to close the distance between us, they became more curious about me.

I love the frosting in his mane.

It was nice to spend some time with these two and I left while they were still relatively comfortable with me.

Another sweet encounter with the wild ones. 🙂
