New Forest foal 2008


New Forest foal
Originally uploaded by AtWaG
I don't recall a year when I've seen more foals around my part of the New Forest....all born pretty much in synchrony too. I guess the stallion around here last year was both vigilant and vigorous.
If you want to see New Forest Foals don't leave it more than another week or so. They grow amazingly quickly and soon turn from endearing babies into gangling, scruffy nosed urchins.
If you visit remember to keep your distance, don't try and pet or feed them and don't do anything to attract them to the roads.

Notes

  • This so true!
    A person who is nice to you but rude to a waiter is not a nice person. (This is very important. Pay attention. It never fails.)
  • The best fertiliser...
    is the farmers foot steps.
  • The best way to keep a plant....
    .. is to give it away
  • Don't dig Parsnips with a fork!
    Use a spade - you won't wreck the roots that way.

    New Forest ponies are hardy chaps with enough breeding to be excellent for riding.
