Horse families

Animals as well as people have families.

Bishop the horse had a full brother. This is Bishop’s brother Cardinal on the left - the one with his tongue stuck out. They looked quite alike except that Bishop was more handsome.

I learned the other day that Walter was talking to the folks where Abracadabra came from. She has a full sister. This mare is close in age to Abra. She had a foal as well so Abra is an auntie. They may get to meet because Walter is going shopping for some more horses. Folks liked Abra and wanted to have a horse like her.

Up in the old part of the barn at Greenbelt a little filly was born last week. Both times I went by to visit she was lying down sleeping. I would really like to see both of them outside. Other horses get very interested when there is a young one around.
