Wow, I'm not into horses but those are beautiful. Must have been fun to watch them run around...

Patrick, I love these. You've done a great job of capturing mare and foal in mother and offspring relationship, showing both protection and instruction. Thanks for sharing.

There you go! protection and instruction like all parents! I enjoyed seeing the horses be a bit more playful. yesterday I saw the same group but they were hugging the fence and you couldn't any good shots of the foals because they were hidden by the fence! Today was much better.
