The ponies were grazing in the pasture near ///gets.spooned.equity at 11:50 this morning. They were all very friendly, coming over to say hello and receive some strokes. The foal enjoyed a long neck rub, giving me head rubs in return. Nicky joined me to check on the little one's face, and we noticed the hair loss had worsened slightly since Friday. He had a few bald patches above his eyes and behind his ears. It appears to be a fungal infection, and although he was reluctant, he received his first treatment. The ponies continued grazing to the east, enjoying the long grass.
By 13:00, the ponies had moved near ///delved.clerk.dairy. Once again, they came over to greet me. Pandora was especially friendly, enjoying a neck rub and licking my hand several times. The ponies were all happy, relaxed and looking well. I said my goodbyes at around 13:20 as they continued grazing.
On our second visit, we met a father and son attempting to reach the ponies to feed them carrots. Nicky kindly explained why this wasn't a good idea, reminding them that ponies can kick and bite. They understood and were fine with the advice.
The ponies were all good today.
