Shetland pony mare and foal
Shetland pony mare and foal

A Shetland pony mare walks with her foal through a spring meadow. You can see a pair of chestnuts above her knees on her front legs. Chestnuts are keratinized epithelial structures, much like human fingernails and are the vestigial remnants of a time when ancestors of modern horses had toes. They can be painless removed, if desired. 20/12/2024 www.allenfotowild.com" rel="noreferrer nofollow www.allenfotowild.com

On a recent trip to far north of Scotland I had the opportunity to visit a breeding farm and photograph some Shetland ponies, an ancient breed of small horses. In the barn there was an impressive wall of show ribbons that I photographed along with one of the ponies. Shetland, Scotland.
