April Winds

It is windy today and has been for the past few days. Since I have a lot of farm land around me wind just rushes through the property like a freight train. The farmer has been disking his field so that adds dirt into the wind, not really a nice day to be outside. But the temperature is pleasant, and there is work to do to.

So I grab my hammer and fencing building materials and start fencing a new pasture. I am pounding away and watching the horses. Kinsey starts prances up and down the paddock. Her tail flips up and she empties herself getting ready to flee. When she does stop Kinsey looks like this:
Is she on high alert because of the farmer in his field?
Is it because of the wind? Or me hammering? I should also mention that she has calmed down a lot here. I had to get the camera, change the batteries and get back outside. Notice that all the other horses are not upset by this strange intrusion in to Kinsey's world. They are looking at me take pictures, she is solely focused on what is bothering her.
I guess I should show you what Kinsey is freaked about:
Now really are these two that scary?

    Are they lionhead bunnies or angora? Too stinkin' cute! And perfect for an Easter photo, too.

  4. Well c'mon that bunny has pink eyes! Amazing what spooks them. She's so pretty though, and I love that little paint in the background.

  5. Ha ha! I think the one with the red eyes is a bit scary myself. A couple of years ago we had baby jackrabbits all over the place, and every time they'd hop they'd take my horses by surprise and cause a stampede.
