Twister's Band feat Windy's New Filly

I drive to where I think Twister's band might be. I am hoping to see Windy's new foal. A couple of days ago I saw them from a distance and saw Windy with a brown "dot" next to here. I was anxious to get a closer look. Well, sure enough they are in their corner of the range.
The band stallion, Twister. He lets me have a look, but never takes those mustang eyes off of me. I am reminded he is a wild animal.
Windy has had a filly! I am surprised she doesn't just run. Instead she seems to pose proudly with her new daughter.
Look how big she is! She is not more then a couple of weeks old. These wild horses are built range tough. They have incredible bone and are very nicely muscled from running to the water hole all the time.
Showing off the new filly.

That's Gus, the 2 yr old colt in the band. He is intigued with the newest member of the band. A young filly we call Copper Girl. "Whoa there...come back here little filly!"
I couldn't get her to lift her head at the right time, but wanted to show you what a beautiful color she is (liver chestnut). I believe her to be Copper's daughter. A friend said he saw Twister mounting her. I have just seen Gus playing with her. She is a nice addition to this band.
Here is the next mare ready to foal, Shady. She is shown with her shy, clingy grullo colt, Whisp. There are two yearlings in this harem, both colts, Whisp and Breeze. Whisp belongs to Shady (shown here) and Breeze (not shown) is Windy's sorrel colt.
There's Gus again. He is not only Twister's son, but also his satellite stallion. Twister was quite lame for most of last summer. I think Gus helped keep the family together.
That's Twister giving a great big yawn!
Father and son. I worry about this band because they live right on the boundary of the HMA. We must watch dog them...Make sure the gates are not left open. These are Colorado treasures. "Come on Twister play with me!" says Gus.
"How about you Copper Girl??"....responds with a kick.
Back to old reliable. These two have one of those special bonds. Look for Gus to have his own band one day. He is a colt with the attitude. The only touble is I think there will be a round up next year. I can not confirm...
This little filly will grow up with her brothers in the breezes of Sand Wash Basin. Where they live is forever windy.....Just look at that wind knot! Let freedom ring!
