Horses, horses, horses

One of the first things to do after coming home, was checking out all our horses emoticon.
Vordís was confirmed pregnant with Snillingur frá Íbishóli, a young, very promising bucksin stallion, and is back in Haga with Perla, Embla, Þýrnirós and Þokki. They are all well, enjoying the lucious grass and the beautiful area. Sigtýr and his 2 mares are well, too, relaxing a lot and eating even more. At least we could motivate them a bit to run for some pics. We still have to check both mares for pregnancy.
The riding horses are fine, Amor's back is healed and List's leg, too, as she prooved yesterday, when she was hopping around like crazy. Of course we had a good ride my first evening back, me on Amor and Ingólfur on Farsæll, who he has been training during my absence. I was really surprised and happy how much progress in tölt these two have achieved. Thanks so much!
On Thursdayevening we kept on training these 2 horses for the sheeproundup in September, this time improving our skills in finding, herding and driving sheep. There were around 36 sheep from a nearby farm in Saltvíkland and they are definitely not supposed to be there. We gathered them together with Bjössi and drove them all the way back to their homemeadows. Hope they won't come back as they have been feeding on our meadow, which we wanted to hay...
Yesterday we went to Helluland and Ingólfur and Kiddi tried some of the young mares, which went very well and I got some nice pics of Embla, Sól, Sóla and Vá. We ended the day at Hólmavað with a delicious barbecue.
I attach a pic of Sigtýr and Aldís.
