The ponies were grazing in the trees near ///groups.series.noted in the far northeast corner of the site at 12:50 this afternoon. They were all together and were totally calm and relaxed. One by one, they came over to greet me. The foal welcomed me with cuddles and licks before enjoying a neck rub. The two newcomers were also very friendly, with Tilly enjoying some ear rubs and Poppy getting a back rub.
The ponies ventured out into the warm sunshine for a short time, enjoying the long grass, but soon returned to the shade of the trees. The little one came over for more strokes, and I was able to remove the sticky burs from his mane. Afterwards, he nursed from his mum before returning to grazing. The ponies were all happy, relaxed and looking well. It was great to see they had all settled down.
Just as I was about to leave, the little one came over for more strokes. He positioned himself under a tree and enjoyed a long back rub. He was completely relaxed, resting a hind leg and closing his eyes. I reluctantly said goodbye to the ponies at 14:00, with them all still happily grazing.
The ponies were all good today.
