One of my main landmarks is the urban farm at Clay Lane, from which goats always seem to be escaping and filling the lane with their wondrous odour. Well, on Friday, a couple of new escapees emerged from the tunnel they had been presumably digging under the guard house and then under the wire.
I was running along the lane, just about to turn uphill to Beacon Hill, when I came across two tiny Shetland ponies making their way quietly along the lane as if it was the most normal thing in the world.
What was most amusing that being far from stupid, these horses picked a path amid the mud and water filled tyre tracks, just as I had done.
Only far more dexterously!

Smart little fellows, great photos!
ReplyDeleteWonder where they ended up.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed your holiday Si.
Really enjoyed reading your posts about Scotland and the photos. The ponies are lovely :)
ReplyDeleteThanks all, realise now these mobile phone pics aren't great, it was very dark in that lane that day. I'm guessing they just wandered back to their farm!
ReplyDeleteNice to have a bit of company.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading about your fabulous 'Scotland' holiday Si, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThose two Shetlands are so cute looking...and clever!
