| I wanted to show you this little Sand Wash family that are very leery of people. |
 |
| The lined back dun is Storm, he has no white on him. He stole this mare from Lightning when his band broke up the spring of 2010. We call her Blue Sky. She had a foal late last summer which I never saw until this year, he is Rain Dance, a colt. |
 |
| It was nice to get a close look at this shy wild horse that sneaks around The Basin. |
 |
| Little Rain Dance is not the chunkiest of mustangs, but is wirey and wiley and has wonderful pinto markings. A real momma's boy, being an only foal. |
 |
| The handsome stallion from another angle. He put up quite a fight to get his one mare. He seems to adore her. |
 |
| Blue Sky was one of the first mustangs I met in the fall of 2009. She was in Lightning's band, but Haze was also in there, another stallion, who is now a bachelor. She was usually near him which makes him the likely sire of Rain Dance. |
 |
| I think Blue Sky may be pregnant. I know the HSUS was not able to dart her with PZP last year. I guess that wouldn't make much of a difference this year, but it will for next year... Their experimental study has not been very successful. That's because there is no science behind it and they do not have enough people in the field. |
