Whilst on holiday in the UK, we travelled through the New Forest and snapped this picture of a 'wild' New Forest pony mare and her foal on the side of the road. It was quite a novelty for us as you don't see wild horses in Africa - only the odd Zebra in a game park!The ponies are quite used to the tourists and take no notice of the cars or hikers wandering around their grazing land. It was really lovely to see them as we drove through this most beautiful part of England. I believe they make excellent children's ponies and are very good natured.

Hi, Thanks for adding me to your blog roll. I'll get you added to mine this week. I've got a related post about the New Forest ponies in the UK on my site. I think it's in the March archives. Give it a read. I had a fun time with those crazy wild ponies.

Hi there CD :)
It was most likely the girl child, although since they are standing (or lying, as the case may be) still - there is a possibility is was me?
It taken through the car window after many anguished shouts for the hubby to STOP so we could get some pictures of these lovely beasts. :)
They are everywhere as you drive through the New Forest.
