| I took these pictures of the herd of wild horses that we sometimes see out on Pierce Ferry Road, down near Stockton Hill Road and Gregg's Hideout Road. |
| Wild Horses |
| I understand that this particular herd of mustangs is genetically unchanged from the horses that came over with Cortez in the 16th century. |
| It's good to see them looking healthy and well-fed. Sometimes when we have seen them they have looked a little gaunt, with ribs showing. |
| This bunch was heading into the West, late one day in the fall of 2009. |
| I hadn't seen them for a few months. They move around depending on the weather and the availability of water and grazing. |
| Just think. None of these have ever been roped, haltered, bridled, saddled or broken. |
| They are wild, free and beautiful. |
| I followed them for awhile as they plodded along the south side of Gregg's Hideout Road. They ignored me. |
| Guess they had somewhere to get to before dark. I wish them well. |
