I might not have been able to take a picture of the foal from a few days ago, but I did photograph another mother and foal elsewhere in the town:
The mother was teaching her offspring bad habits: of all the horses in the field, only these two approached, obviously seeking food. Not wanting to encourage them further, I stood away from the gate which obstructs the view of the horses.
The mother soon realised that I wasn't there to feed her or her offspring, and so she walked off to find something more interesting; however, the foal watched me until I walked away.
So darn cute. I went to the Academy of Natural Sciences again today. Felt weird with no orchids, lol. I'll post pictures later.
ReplyDeleteI'll have a look. :)
Deleteoh my goodness LOOK! we saw some baby lambs (is that redundant?) in a field yesterday and then some piglets too and I felt very LA ENGLISH COUNTRYSIDE WOO!
ReplyDeleteIt is redundant, but it's still a cute term. :)
