These roses are a climbing variety, and they utilize other trees and shrubs for their support. A few of these roses are in single bushes, but most are seen cascading down from the branches of other vegetation...
I awoke from my van in the company of sheep, their herders, dogs and horse, and, to my delight, lots of wild horses. Wild horses are feral, but to me, truly wild. They live on their own, have a distinct social order and a wildness about them that is quite attractive. Stallions gather mares and fight for dominance to keep their "family" together. Within a herd the alpha must maintain his position. As a result, stallion interactions such as the one pictured here are not uncommon. When different groups come together or when bachelors in a herd are establishing their rank there is going to be some action. To see a stallion gallop out to challenge a rival, or one chasing another and to see the ground they can cover hair flying,
dust rising and aggression imminent, is a thrill.
This was taken in the afternoon believe it or not, I thought I was done for wild garlic this year although it is not centre stage here.
I was out scouting an area for the future, the retreating rain started to form a misty atmosphere in the forest. It was incredibly vibrant!
It was 6 am in the morning with misty foggy conditions in the forest with very less visibility and i could manage a decent shot because I was quite far away from these huge creatures!!
I have now been to two county parks where wild turkey have come down from the mountains and inveigled themselves with the more domesticated ducks and geese. Interesting...

I take pictures because I like it, not because I am good at it.

This years crop of wild foals were all having a great time chasing each other around and playing foal games. I couldn't get a good shot of the group because they were mostly behind other horses. This youngster looped out from the heard and I was able to get an isolated shot. It was wonderful to be out here shooting these Wild horses again. More to come...

Bald Eagle I seen the other day, I only had the 100-400mm lens on. So kind of a distant shot, still happy to see this bird of prey regardless. :)

Wild—even demonic—
Strawberries. Apologies

Fire, Ice, lensing drop.
At the end of the season,
Scorched leaves, unripe fruit.
Gaia knows the past,
And how the future unfolds,
But not what will be.

Wild Horses_The Rolling Stones
Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you've decided to show me the same
No sweeping exit or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away
I know I've dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken tears must be cried
Let's do some living after we die
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses we'll ride them some day
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses we'll ride them some day
