Today's sun makes up for last week's snow. I was real happy to see the sun break over the mountain this morning.
Beamer got turnout without his blanket- happy Beamer!
A few good rolls to get rid of the feel of the blanket.....
and a few laps around the field....
kicking up his heels....
and that was all- time to look for grass under the snow.
In this photo you can clearly see the hematoma he has above his left knee. It's been there for about a year, and I consider it just a blemish as he has no unsoundness from it, and it isn't tender to the touch.
The girls did a lot of napping in the sun, when they weren't busy digging up the soft ground looking for roots to nibble on. They are making some pretty big craters.
No frost in this ground!

A pretty black horse against that snow! Looks chilly!
Pretty views though all the way around!
It wasn't chilly at all- warm in the sun and melting snow.
I see blogger is messing with the comment forms again.
I love the picture of him kicking up his heels. Good catch!
Great photos! My Noble had a puffy knee (encounter with a stall door) for years, but it never gave him any trouble at all.
Wow, he's so clean! I loved the sunshine today, too. It was pretty muddy at our place, but the horses were loving the warmth of the sun.
Love your gorgeous horses!! :-)
Beamer sure looks happy to be without his blanket for a while. Hope you are sending some warmth here, high of -12 today
Always love shots of Mr Handsome!
We woke up to high clouds that cleared off to a sunny day. Beautiful, even though it barely got above freezing.
The herd is looking good...of course Beamer looks really good. I can't get over how big Rio is.
Beautiful, there is something about a black horse in a white field..:-)
i love that first shot of the sun coming up over your mountain. and i love how the snow keeps horses clean, even beamers hooves are clean! good that he can find food underneath, and that the girls can entertain themselves as well. it seems winter in germany means just standing around waiting for spring.
He does look happy to be naked out there. Good for Beamer.
