Tiger Update

Tiger working well in the house field at the end of his fifth week with us.

Chamfron Compostela - Six years old

Stela had a photo shoot ready to get her own page on the website, on studying the photos I noticed three things...  1) Mark could stand closer to his razor.  2) Stela has very floofy ears and 3) They were not taking my direction and artistic flair seriously!

Glorious

Yet another glorious autumn day, Mark harrowed the house field while I wandered about spreading grass seed (probably feeding the birds).  Bright orange pollen billowing out behind the tractor.  The House Martins were limbering up, preparing to leave.

Capture!

The Criollo children have surrounded Mark and are now halter breaking him before offering him for sale...

Breaking Update

Stela has a chat with stable jockey Ted and Tiger is starting to look more relaxed at the end of his fourth week with us.

Autumnal

Plenty signs of Autumn around including the start of the rut on the Trail Cam (yes, I went back on my original plan and moved it).  You must beware the driveway brambles - he only licks them!

Ditching

Another glorious day here, in fact we've had so little rain Mark had to clear the stream in the front field to get it running and keep the water clear for the horses.  Hanami and Mojito said "that looks awful tiring in this heat"!  Both the trees and the horses are starting to get their rich autumn colours.
