At 14:20 this afternoon, the ponies were grazing contentedly in the southwest corner of the site, mainly browsing on gorse. They were all very friendly, taking turns to come over to greet me and enjoy plenty of strokes and rubs. They seemed pleased to have the loose gorse brushed from their backs and untangled from their manes and tails. All eight ponies were happy, relaxed, and looking well.
By 15:00, they had crossed the path to continue grazing on the northern slope of Brock’s Hill. The girls alternated between grazing, resting, and returning for lots more attention. They especially enjoyed long neck and chin rubs, relaxing completely, lowering their heads, and resting a hind leg. The ponies were a joy to spend some quiet time with this afternoon.
I said my goodbyes at 16:30, leaving them all peacefully grazing on the slope of the hill.
The ponies were all good today.
