That's his beautiful sorrel mom, she is White Out's only mare. Strider is her 2010 colt plus she still has her 2 year old, River, with her. She likes to be near the black mare, Crow, who is with the stallion Yellow man, both stallions are white.
Here is the 2010 colt. He has a stripe just like the filly in Cosmo's band. The femur stripe.
This is the stallion White Out. He is very loyal to his only mare, they have a harmonious relationship.
The two mustang brothers Strider and River. They seemed to have fun together this summer. Whenever I saw them they were being mischevious.. For now it is all work, trying to find enough food to survive.
I think the mare may be pregnant. Strider was an early colt last spring. Time will tell. She got huge last year!
The coming 2 year old in the band. He seems to be greying out slowly. He is at that awkward stage. He will bloom this spring.

Thanks for sharing these pics, Nancy. Everyone seems to be doing well so far. I pray they all remain healthy and free!
I especially love this last guy ... um hmmm. I think he is going to grow up to be one handsome stallion. If he doesn't have a name yet, for some reason "The Sandman" comes to mind; I have no idea why. :D
BTW: HAPPY 2011, Nancy!
Thanks for commenting. For our documentation we named that coming 2 yr old in WO's band "River". But you may call him whatever you like! It will be interesting to see how he sheds out this spring. He is very tight with his little bro, Strider. Before that he was an only colt. He has grown up next to Yellow Man's band who also has that 2 yr old colt, Star. I am thinking they might branch out together...we will see!
