My big question of the day... WHY DO WE STILL HAVE FLIES? I'm convinced nuclear holicaust, alien invasion, another ice age - flies and cockroaches will never die. I've killed more flies today than I did all summer. ARGH!
The horses are all doing well. It's winter they eat and wander around basically. Half the day it looks like we don't have the big herd we have, as they disappear into one of the valley on the hills.
The rescue group is coming along nicely, no illness, eating well, bright eyed, so today we blended them in with the mares/foals. They're all on a larger pasture (two adjoining pastures opened together) with free choice grass hay and a fairly heavy alfalfa feeding. I took a few (bad as usual) photos of them about an hour ago.
Celena out on pasture. She spends most of her time grazing on the hill, she actually ran a few steps today, the first time I've seen her do that. She's slowly filling out, but it's likely to take through Spring to get back to not looking like a bone. The rest are doing well too, grazing and moving around. The healthier ones went for a lovely gallop earlier (of course no camera handy), and really seem to be enjoying themselves. It's probably very nice for them after being locked up in pens for a few years.
