Dutch Ponies

Julie commented over dinner last night that I don’t post enough photos showing me. I think I post exactly the right amount (rounding to zero) but these cute ponies we hung out with give me an excuse to throw one out there.

The first ponies we met had zero interest in us.

However, this juvenile little guy came trotting over to me immediately when I offered a hand.

All of the ponies got more engaged once we started fetching wild carrots and some yellow flowers for them. We just looked for stuff growing outside their pasture that was absent from inside, thinking that’s what they like to eat first.

Not that this one needed more enticing, but it was nice to give him a flowery treat and some neck scratches.
