I was out riding today and saw this tiny little foal. I couldn't resist, so i went back and took some photos. It is the first one that i have seen this year, and as luck would have it I saw another one on the same ride! I used a really long lens so that i did not disturb them. The mare was so pretty and gentle with her baby. I couldn't read her brand, so i took a picture of it.

The foal was so little, and seemed very wobbly, I don't think that it has been in this world for very long. Bless!

What a pretty picture the two of them, and how lovely to see them locally like you do.

Very New Baby

April 3 2009, 9:46 AM 

When I first saw this foal - on my ride - the foal was having trouble getting a leg at each corner. I took these photos a couple of hours later and it was much more in control of its pins. Its little tummy was very empty, so I think that it had literally just arrived. I saw another foal with its mum, but it was a good half a mile away and right at the limit of my camera lens, so they are about this end of the Forest!

Day 2 of Foal on Picket Hill

April 3 2009, 9:58 PM 

I saw this little one again. It has dried out thoroughly now and was mooching along the side of the lane with mum. I think that it will have a friend any day soon as the mare's pal - she is in the background - was looking very uncomfortable, biting her flanks and swishing her tale with that far away/in pain look about her. Bless her she needed a wheel barrow for her belly.
