Activity in the herd

I love watching the horses when their life is up! (Do you know you can click on any picture and get a BIG version of it?)





Rusty watches Bobo's first meeting with Soli




Rusty and Kacee coming to intervene




Some cantering down hill while Sofia and Bobo watch




There was a pattern... Bobo would approach one or more horses. Rusty and/or Kacee would chase him away. All would graze or move someplace. Bobo would approach again. Rusty and/or Kacee would chase him away. All would graze or move again.

Here is Bobo looking on, wanting to be part of things but without much of a clue how to get along -- yet. He is learning some essential lessons about being part of a group from the horses themselves. Already he's looking and waiting at a distance, not charging up to anyone like he did at first. No sense in my doing much with him before he settles into his horseness.
