The green and yellow leaf has such a cool look!

I do like the way sycamore leaves colour in Autumn.

Gorgeous! love those chonky horses.

Light heavies are popular locally. People who ride tell me they're easy going and nice natured.

My Romani ancestors would have used them to pull vardos (the traditional Romani caravan)

Such beautiful tiny details!

The drafty dudes look wonderful, love the yellow leaf with the green circles!, and the lovely sprawling roots!

I'm told I have an eye for it, but I only take what's there! :o)

[cmcmck]

They are a friendly pair. The black and white was giving his nose a scratch on the wire so we went across and did it for him! :o)

Love this autumn shot. The horses are so cute, do you happen to know what breed they are? I've never seen horses like that.

[cmcmck]

I can't say exactly what breed but they're a form of what gets called 'light heavy' locally- not as big as the real big guy old time farm horses like Shire or Clydesdale but still larger than standard riding horses.

This clydesdale would be several hands taller than those guys:



As I said above, I know my Romani ancestors would have used them to pull their caravans.

Thank you for taking the time to explain. Whatever they are, they are super-cute and very distinctive.

[cmcmck]

Y're welcome.

They are lovely horses and very nice natured. :o)

[sasha_feather]
