Lessons taught
Jean and headed out one day to shoot some wild horses she got a tip about. I'm not a horse person so I'm not really familiar with horse behavior and body language. What I can say was it was utterly amazing to stand in the middle of a heard of 200 or so wild horses and watch them interact. Most of the time they seemed to congregate in small bands of 3-8 individuals and peacefully graze. Once in a while an individual would stray and get too close to another pack. Sometimes a stern look or a few steps towards the intruder with would be enough. Other times a full blown chase would break out. In this case the offender tried to make a fast turn, skidded and fell on it’s ass. Teeth are a formidable weapon out here. A lesson is taught...a few new battle scars and the calm resumes for a few minutes.
