Thought I read the blog this morning or yesterday evening, but obviously not, as at 12.17 in G5/H5 eight ponies appeared. 😕. They were spread out over about 150 yards. While I was at one end, there was a "minor skirmish", (to quote Gordon) at the other end between two of them with a bit of neighing and jumping about. It was over in 30 seconds. I took a few photos of each pony to assist with my future identification. If we could have the names too please, that'll help my aging brain.
At 12.33 in F6, when I was looking for the cattle, sans GPS, as I couldn't get it to open on the phone, Polly led all the ponies past me in line astern. They were on a SW heading.
At 13.10, while still cattle hunting, I came upon the ponies again in E9. The elder dark pony was in the shade of the pine trees and happy to have her neck scratched and nose rubbed for fly alieviation. Polly saw me and came into the trees with two others, but was not too bothered for any attention.
At 13.18, I found the four guys under some pine trees right next to the NW corner of the ammo dump compound. They were right next to the bund that surrounds the western side of the compound. I had probably rode within a few feet of them earlier.
They were contentedly chewing the cud, with J'Adore & Jura each getting a long head scratch. Jet & Jeans unusually were also up for this. Jet was so relaxed, he closed his eye for about a minute.
All the stock appeared well today
