Same path, different direction

Just as the fab four arrive at the barn like clockwork for breakfast, they head back out after dinner, moseying along the same well-worn path.



Wait...somebody's missing.

Oh, here he comes.

Right...

  2. Their internal clocks never need batteries to keep running do they. Our herd has designated times for coming for water, or traveling to graze different fields. They are way more organized than I am.

  3. I'm curious...looks like one of the guys has something on his head, like a mask. is that to protect an injury or to help him not shy at something?

  4. Molly, that would be Lyle, wearing a fly mask. Normal horses wear them to keep flies out of their eyes - Lyle wears his to keep his face from breaking out in nasty little bumps from something he's allergic to out there in the pasture.

  10. Your herd is so blessed to have such a lot of space to roam in. They sure do look like a healthy, happy family.

    Thanks for all your support over at my place, Linda. *sigh* So far we're holding steady...
