When I think of wild horses I imagine them racing across a chaparral somewhere. I heard that there were several bands of wild horses in the Tonto National Forest in Arizona, and was able to locate some more by luck than anything else. They were not racing around anywhere, though. Rather they were trying to stay cool under some trees quite near a parking lot in a recreation area. They seemed more like homeless horses than wild ones, but it was great to see them just going about their business. There were a couple stallions who were keeping a close eye on me, because there was this foal of about 2 or three weeks and another who I was told was only about a week old. I did not get close enough to stress them, though, instead counting on a long lens to give me a shot of this intimate moment early in the life of this young horse.
