The ponies were resting among the trees to the northwest of the ammo compound near ///utter.eager.wide at 14:25 this afternoon. They took turns saying hello and enjoying plenty of strokes, rubs and scratches. The ponies were very friendly, with several giving me head rubs and nuzzles. Many relaxed with long back rubs, resting a hind leg and closing their eyes. One pony, after receiving a long neck rub, lay down right in front of me and let me continue stroking her. It was great to see that the dark pony with the white blaze's front left leg has nearly fully healed.
At around 15:10, the ponies began moving out of the trees and across the track to graze. They soon made their way through the trees to the pasture west of the ammo compound, where they continued eating fresh grass, heather, and gorse. The ponies frequently came over for strokes and back rubs as they grazed. The darker pony playfully rolled on her back on a patch of wet grass right in front of me. The girls were all happy, relaxed and looking great. I said my goodbyes just before 16:00.
I removed a couple of sharp, rusty metal strands from the site, which I found in the heather near the area where the ponies ended up grazing this afternoon.
The ponies were all good today.
