more wintery pics.

Another rare day of sunshine today. As i arrived at the paddock i saw a lump of horse rug in the paddock and i started to get that nervous feeling in my stomach as any horse owner would have felt before. As i walked closer i noticed Violet laying flat out in a shallow ditch not moving, it took me a few moments before i was close enough to see her belly rising and falling, the poor girl was having a snooze in the sun (how dare she scare me like that)!

I decided to catch a quick photo before i called her name to make sure she was ok, as soon as i spoke her head shot up and she looked at me with sleepy eyes as though how dare i wake her on a sunny morning.

I am very happy with how she's held her weight over winter, such a easy horsey to look after. Both Vi and Taani have lost a shoe while getting out and cavorting around the farm so i will have to call the farrier this week.
