The wild horses

On Saturday, E and I hiked along the Salt River. 
We hoped to see the wild horses.






The horses are feral. 
They are beautiful. 
And their future is undetermined.

Beautiful pictures. I will have to hike there to see if I can get photos of the wild horses.

Yes. I want to see them someday. I hope nothing horrible is in their future. I have a T-shirt that says "Save a horse. Eat a politician!" I love it.

Oh I hope they're let alone. You've really done a great job capturing them here. Beautiful area! Looks like a nice time outside. That first shot especially is really something. Hope you are doing well.

And see them you did! They're beautiful. I did not realize there were wild horses in that area. Maybe that's something I should think about doing when I make my next visit in October!

But wont they chase you threaten you.

What a wonderful reward!
"undetermined" is a little bit scary... I wish them the best.

Beautiful photos! It would be a sad day to see them all disappear.

What I meant to say is "I hope they become protected..."

I didn't know there were still wild horses. They are incredibly beautiful!

I had to come back and look at these pics again. They're like Diane's bobcat on Saguaro shots. You really did a bang up job on these. I can't get over how beautiful they are....and I'm not even a horse person!

For me the beauty is more striking in these photos than the August 6 ones, though all of them are really nice.
