Newly Born Colt: for Camera Critters
We have been spending quite a bit of time outdoors this past week and one day while hiking up a railroad track adjacent to a stream, 
we spied a marvelous sight of a mare and her newly born colt from across the river. There were signs to indicate to us that this colt had just recently been born and we were surprised at the lateness in the year of its birth. 
It is so amazing to see how some of nature's creatures adjust to their new environment so quickly. We viewed as best we could from our distant location, and watched while the colt followed the mare as it grazed about in the wooded and pasture area.

It does seem late. I saw some very young calves yesterday. Weird!
This is a truly fantastic post, and that last shot is absolutely precious and priceless! Great work!
So late in the season? I hope it will stay warm enough this winter. They are such cute newborns. And I thought my daughter's birth being breech was a tough go...a baby horse is huge and all legs..Ouch...
