Angel's Foal Keeps Growing

Yesterday afternoon Angel and her foal were grazing in their field as we stopped to have a look at them. When they noticed us they stopped and stared back.

After a while ma decided it was safe to wander over and say hello..

The foal still stays close to mum but looks much more confident than the last time we saw them. There was just enough life left in the battery to take a few short video clips with the Lumix. Although junior is eating grass and such like he still likes to wash it down with a bit of mother's milk. I love the way his tail pumps up and down whilst suckling.



It was lovely to be able to say hello and watch them close up for a while.

I think junior (I must find out whether he has been given a name yet) is growing in to a handsome stallion.
