At 19.20 this evening, the ponies were grazing near ///intervene.mouths.fists, in the northeast section of the site. They were happily browsing on long grass and leaves from the trees. One by one, they came over to say hello and enjoyed plenty of strokes and rubs. Although the sun was beginning to set behind the tall trees, there were still quite a few flies around. The ponies were content to stand close for head and neck rubs, which helped keep the flies at bay.
After our initial greetings, they returned to grazing in the thicket, but soon came back over for longer neck and back rubs. They quickly relaxed, lowering their heads and resting a hind leg. After a while, Pandora moved into some nearby bushes to rest and escape the flies. She was happy for me to join her and thoroughly enjoyed a long neck rub, offering gentle nuzzles in return.
The scratches on the larger pony’s left side looked less raised today and appeared to be healing well. She showed no signs of discomfort and was happy for me to rub over the area.
By around 20:00, as the temperature dropped and the flies lessened, the ponies began grazing southwest toward the central cluster of trees in the more open area. They continued to wander over for more back and shoulder rubs as they ate. I said my goodbyes at 20:20, leaving them peacefully grazing.
I hope you're feeling better soon, Carolyn.
The ponies were all good today.
Thank you Gordon that's nice of you to step in.
