The five ponies were all grazing in the swampy ground around ///self.chess.sour at 16.30 this afternoon. The foal was lying down, resting on a grass island near to his mum. It had been raining since the early morning, so they were all rather damp, but were drying out quickly. The ponies all came over and said hello, which saved me from the worst of the difficult underfoot conditions.
The foal was asleep for most of my visit, but he did wake up around 17:05 and join Megan while she was grazing. As I was saying my goodbyes to the ponies just before 17:30, he came bounding over to see me. After some initial sniffing, he was happy to be stroked. He had dried out a lot from when I first saw him.
It was nice to see Carolyn and her husband, who also came to check on the ponies.
The ponies were all good today.
