The ponies were found on top of Brock's Hill around ///slightly.registry.blink at 10:35 this morning. The girls were all happily grazing, eating lots of grass and gorse. The little one had been lying down, but came running over as soon as he saw me. He was happy to be stroked all over and generally be made a fuss of. He was super friendly today, giving cuddles and gently nuzzling as he was receiving a long neck and back rub.
By 11:00 the girls had moved down to the area around ///beads.sides.ramps where they continued to graze. The foal followed me down to join them, where we played some more. He was nibbling the tongue of my boot again and managed to undo my lace. Not long after, the ponies wandered out to the main path and started to graze on the grass at the side. The little one crossed over into the southwest corner and went for a run around, completing several loops at top speed. The thundering hooves, coupled with a few gentle neighs, brought the other ponies in to see what he was up to.
The ponies soon wandered back out and down to the grassy area at the start of the track up Brock's Hill. The palomino pony went and lay down behind some bushes just off the main path. The other two girls continued to graze. The little one, who had been enjoying another long back rub, lay down at my feet, wanting me to continue to stroke him. After a while, Megan went for a roll about, causing the foal to get up and go and see what his mum was doing. The palomino pony also got up and came over to see me and received a nice ear rub. I said goodbye to the ponies just before noon, with them wandering off down the path toward the racecourse.
The ponies were all good today. It's difficult to believe it's already four weeks since the little bundle of joy came into our lives 😄.
