I spent all spring watching that roan coat fade into strawberry silver. It was a color transformation like none I had ever seen. Now, the signs of shorter days and cooler temperatures are undeniable. Longer guard hairs have started sprouting everywhere...

But the dead giveaway that makes it real…

The Fancy Roan Pony has solid red ears. *sigh*

Why can't we have a nice cool winter without fuzzy horses? I hate fuzzy horses!
ReplyDeleteI would love to enjoy a texas winter this year! I don't mind fuzzy horses. And I've always been fascinated by the incredible amount of change the roan colored coat goes through in a year!!
DeleteI am, however, less fond of waiting for really long winter horse coats to dry out after a hard ride on a cold day... This winter's secret weapons? A cooler and an electric hair dryer!! Can you imagine what the Fancy Pony will think of that!? LOL
