Serenity/Rural Thursday

Country morning

East Gwillimbury is rural but close to the City of Toronto. Even though the city is ever expanding, large tracks of land to the north are still farm land and there are many, many horse farms.

Grazing on fresh, green grass

Such long-legged babies! I have seen foals before, but never had one that was ours or lived near me!

One of the best joys of spring, baby horses!

I like your photos of the horses. I hope that at least some of these farms can hold out against urban sprawl.
