Horse Wednesday

Our barn's newest arrival - a filly - taken when she was a few days old.  It will be fun to watch her grow up. 

 

 

Joining Shirley in posting horse (or more) images.  Check out her website - she always has beautiful images.

No fancy processing this week (or even minimal processing) -- this cold my son shared with me has gotten a good hold of my senses... 3 days down - about 4 to go??  can't wait to breathe, feel human & not cough.  Hope everyone has a better rest of the week than me!!

Horse (& More) Wednesday

For the past several weeks I've joined Shirley for Horse Wednesday meme - however this week I'm going for the "More."  Not that I don't have amy horse images - I have TONS - but we have a new addition to our barn who I haven't seen yet & want to share with everyone next week.  So.... here's my "more" image.

The story  -- my husband & son have decided this year to be diligent about mowing our large yard (I think they just like riding on the lawn tractor).  However, their newly found enthusiasm has just about eliminated any wildflowers in the yard.  A single brown-eyed Susan has managed to survive the blades (last year I had a patch of them).  As you can see - I got down on the ground for an eye-level view of the single flower, propped up my camera with my elbows for a steady shot & wouldn't you know it -- an unintentional photo-bomber -- too funny!!!

Check out Shirley's Wednesday post - she stayed with the Horse/Barn theme this week & as always has wonderful images to share.  You can find her here.

Wow - Wednesday already?  The last few months of the school year have really had us busy - if it weren't for this meme -- I'm not sure I'd have time to think about a post much less get it uploaded. 

 

Spring has everyone's attention - geldings thinking (wishing) they were stallions, mares flirting  -- obviously some mare has this guy's attention.  We know he thinks he is a stallion and in his mind a 17 HH one at that.

Just a little bit of a glamour shot for one of our senior members of the barn.  She still has a lot of spunk for her age & is a true survivor.

Horse Wednesday

 

A barn-friend's horse who loves an occassional good run -- she's young & has a lot of energy - best to let her get it out without a saddle/rider on her back.  We love watching her - and even better - she listens to her mom's/owner's instructions when being exercised.

This recent image of my daughter with her favorite horse at the barn (he kind of likes her too) has become one of my favorites.

This perchon mare's eyes are soft and her eyelashes so girly (even if she is a giant of a horse).
