~Animals~ We took a drive up a side road near the village of Broke in the Lower Hunter and spotted the beautiful little Shetland Pony stallion in a paddock with a mare. The female ate half a loaf of bread so I could get in a shot as she nipped the male whenever he came close. Graham said he'd help me next time as it was difficult to part the barbed wire, take a shot and feed at the same time. Not enough hands lol. ~Pat and Graham
