Many of the fields in this area have been divided into paddocks for use by the horse riding community. These two beauties had been grazing separately, quite calmly, when they decided on a bit of communication. Charming.

Grazing near Gothersley, Staffordshire
Seen from Greensforge Lane, many of the fields have been divided into paddocks so that horses can graze and have "their own space". Someone told me that horses can be cantankerous with others they do not know. These two beauties are definitely good friends, enjoying some early warm spring grazing. The Smestow River is behind the trees.
