Curious Colt

Uploaded: May 16, 2004

Description

Taken at the Ky Horse Park on a very overcast day. ( I am not at all educated on horses and a little confused over the terms colt and foal.... I do know that this young horse is a male and I think that makes him both a foal and a colt??? Please feel free to correct me if I have this title wrong!)

Thanks so much, Colette and Donna for your comments! I had actually uploaded the wrong file and thought I deleted it quickly enough but you had already commented! (This image is the same except for slight sharpening for the web.) Thanks again,

Lovely image, love the wind in his mane and the curious look in his eye. You are right he is a colt. A foal is a generic baby horse, a colt is a male and a filly is a female. They then become a Mare (female) by 4 and a Stallion (male) or a gelding (also male but castrated). #543119
