. . . and it looks like the pigeons have learned that this sweet horse knows how to share. There's a group of people who are fighting to ban horse-drawn carriages in the city—and I can't say I disagree that this is no life for these animals (especially in extreme weather). When I walk along Central Park South, I have to pet (and maybe get a nice nuzzle from) some of these hardworking horses. [Linking back to Ruby Tuesday and Our World Tuesday.] |

Great photo!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful horse!
And what would happen to the horses if they were banned? You would like to think of a life of leisure in the country, but that might not be the case. It is a complicated problem with no easy solution.
Have a great day!
It has to take a huge toll on their legs to constantly walk and trot on the hard pavement. At least they are well fed. - Margy
ReplyDeleteSuch a handsome horse. I always feel sorry for horses that have to pull and carry heavy loads.

Lovely shot. Here is a connection to a carriage horse commentary. http://www.equiculture.org/carriage-horse-myths.aspx
ReplyDeleteHere in B'ham, there's the Peanut Depot. They are usually still warm when you buy a bag and people start cracking them open on the street. You guessed it...birds and pigeons!
ReplyDeleteNice horse. It's not much of a life for the horse. Hard pavement, car fumes, the noise and the traffic so I can understand.
