Everyone loves a newborn

Our neighbour's mare had a dear little colt last early yesterday morning. Horses all around have been waiting patiently from mum to bring the little to the fence-lines so that they can have a good look. Our 3 horses spent a couple of hours in the corner watching and neighing to the mare. The neighbour's other horses were at another fence-line doing the same. I know it is silly to attribute human emotions to animals, but that mare looks like she is showing him off today she is bringing him a bit closer to the fences. One of the neighbour's horses has spent nearly all day on the fence line yesterday and today, hope she gets a good look soon.

On a sad note the little koala that was shot did not survive. Apparently these morons went out of their way to shoot the baby and his mum because Aust. Zoo vets say the autopsy shows he was shot within a 2m range. How pathetic is the shooter - how could you do that - hope the moron gets some psychiatric help soon.
