Medicine Hats

I am lucky on this day, I bump into the medicine hat gang. Here is the new foal with her dam and auntie Raven. You can kinda make out the band stallion, Viggo, behind them.
They seem to stop to pose. She sure inherited her dam's good looks. Don't you think?
She is a true Sand Wash jewel!
She is a pretty delicate filly. Raven watches over her. The black mare does not have any youngsters of her own.
This is Show Girl. She is the link between Viggo's and Tonka's bands, which travel together. When she went off to have her new foal she came back and joined up with the grey stallion, Tonka, leaving her yearling filly with her old bay stallion, Viggo. Now the two bands are seen together, but Show Girl is clearly with Tonka and her yearing filly is with Viggo.
This is Rudi, she was Tonka's original mare. She is foalless like Raven.
The two foals from the different bands are allwed to interact. Show Girl's chestnut is a colt, kid named Zorro.
Plump and healthy mare!
Destiny has one blue eye like her medicine hat brother.
Zorro, he is the little trouble maker in the group. A very playful, mischievious colt. He loves to pick on Destiny!
This is Barcus, a bachelor stallion that is tagging the bands. All was peaceful when I saw them. Barcus was stuck on the other side of the fence for about a month this spring. I am so glad he made it back!
Little Zorro sharing some greasewood with his yearling mustang brother.
Here is the grey stallion that has Rudi, Show Girl and Zorro.
This is Show Girl's pinto yearling filly who travels with the bay stallion. She is really getting to look like her dam.

Ooo, I love that pinto foal (with the 1/2 colored face). She (he?) is pretty.

You take wonderful pictures. I would absolutely love to live where you can get to see them so often. Such beautiful horses. I am partial to the pintos. Do the mares not have foals because they were given the birth control shot?
