At 11:45 this morning, the ponies were resting under the trees in the far southwest corner. They were both very friendly, taking turns to come over to say hello and enjoy plenty of strokes and rubs. Afterwards, they moved to the fence by the racecourse, where they settled to relax and bask in the sunshine whenever it broke through the clouds. Both happily accepted long neck, shoulder, and back rubs while resting, frequently offering gentle nuzzles in return. Every so often, they would snack on holly or stretch their necks through the fence to nibble at the gorse. The girls were happy, relaxed, and looking well.
I was about to leave shortly after 13:00 when they both followed me out into the pasture and along to the corral, clearly not ready for me to go. They continued taking turns to wander over for more scratches, each one eager for attention. The one not being fussed over would graze contentedly on the surrounding fresh grass. I said my goodbyes at 13:30, leaving them both peacefully grazing.
The ponies were all good today.
