poliphiloThe owner of the ponies came and fed them sliced white bread. Horses like sliced white bread, who knew?
Earlier Ailz had given them carrots. We discovered that all you have to do is call, "Come over here," and they come. I hadn't realised they were quite so tame. The owner has an even simpler method of summoning them. He shakes his bags of Wonderloaf- and they hear it from a field away.
Three of the ponies are cobs. The third is part cob, part Dartmoor and stands a little higher.

I like living alongside animals- letting them be themselves, not intervening too much in their lives.
