At 16:00 this afternoon, the ponies were grazing contentedly in the sunshine on the eastern slope of Brock’s Hill. They were both very friendly, taking turns to greet me and enjoy plenty of strokes and rubs. Afterwards, they alternated between grazing and returning for extended periods of attention, clearly enjoying long neck and back scratches. They were very affectionate, offering gentle nuzzles and head rubs, with the collared pony even giving my ears a lick.
The ponies gradually moved round to the northern slope of the hill, mainly nibbling on fresh grass and heather, but occasionally heading down to the foot of the hill to browse gorse. After a final round of strokes and rubs, I said my goodbyes at 17:20, leaving them grazing peacefully.
The ponies were all good today.
