A couple of weeks ago He Who Must Be Obeyed took me along with him on a trip to the Black Hills. On our way home we caved in to the tourist 'thing' and went for a two hour tour of the Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary. It was truly horse heaven.
This lonely mare is rejected by the stallion and his herd of mares in the background. Every time she comes a little too close to them, he runs her off. Even then she doggedly continues to follow them, grazing on the periphery.
Here are a group of newcomers to the ranch, some Spanish Mustang decendants and their foals. Their coloring is unique and they have a black mane and tail connected by a stripe down their backs.This was a wonderful time of the year; nearly every mare had a very young foal.
