Any apples? by maggiemae

Any apples?

Duck shooting season starts. Heard the pop pop, bang bang, of guns quite close and remembered there is a small pond just up the road on the other side of the bike trail! Biked up there but no hidden duck shooters. However did get two horses who were interested in what I was doing!
Three good things:
1. I managed this quick one as they lost interest and started to wander away. No apples in my camera bag!
2. The duck shooting eventuated in an armed offenders callout just up the road - one man was arrested eventually!
3. Tried roasting some chestnuts we had gathered on our last camping spot. One almighty explosion and we looked at the recipe again!
Looks like you caught a potential escape artist.

@taffy I couldn't understand that when I saw it,Taffy - appears the electric fence goes between them!

Seems like that electric fence isn’t going! Cute horses.

I certainly hope their owners check out the paddock before they turn the fence on!! Beautiful horses.

Such gorgeous colours! There was a duck shoot on the farm I was staying at last year in Yorkshire. Guns going off all around us and ducks falling out of the sky! It was horrible! The farmers wife said she was sorry she forgot to mention it was the annual duck shoot! It went on all afternoon all along the valley! I wasn’t happy!

A fabulous photo of these horses and beautiful colors and clarity! The chestnut story had me laughing!

@grammyn That's taken with my old camera - nothing wrong with it except it won't tell the right date! I think its an internal battery problem.

I laughed out loud at the “almighty explosion”! What a great descriptive phrase!

@ludwigsdiana I'd have to agree with you, Diana - they didn't seem to be keeping away from the tape!

You may need to check your colour saturation Maggie. The horse on the right is very purple.
