The black socks come from Line - and maybe Bjutind too. All of Line's foals born here have them, especially Lars. His black legs are really striking because the feathers on the backs of his legs are silvery. Makes him really flashy when he trots.

Jean, Great pictures. My goodness, Bjorken looks so much like our Glendar - his halfbrother!! Glendar is by Rikolv out of Phil Petty's mare Paske.

Moose/Pictures of Stella II and Bjorken
This message is from: Jean Ernest <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >BTW, I haven't heard much about the moose in your >neighborhood this year. I take it they aren't pestering your horses too much >these days? The cow and calf moose that had bedded down outside my window a few weeks ago were back yesterday, eating hay out of the back corner of my Hay barn. I have some alfalfa in the little horse barn and have been careful to keep both parts of the dutch door closed, and lucky I did. The moose calf was sniffing around the door yesterday, he could smell the alfalfa. I was afraid they might jump into the barn over the bottom half of the dutch door, and not be able to jump out, which would pose a bit of a problem..:-) The horses don't pay any attention to the moose anymore, which will be an asset when we meet moose on the trail. However I have to be cautious about the dog when putting her out on her cable runner. Yesterday morning the moose scared her enough that she hit the end of the rope and broke her collar, then took off in the dark down the drive toward the road. With all the morning traffic on the road I was afraid she might get hit, but she did come running back safely. Since then she is very spooky about the woods in back of the house...on the lookout for those moose!

This message is from: Jean Ernest <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Lori Albroughj has put picture of two of my fjords on her website. (Thanks, Lori!) My mare Stella (Stella II) was imported by the Unraus from Norway along with her dam Line in l981. Her sire is Butind N1697. Stella was born in l977, the picture was taken in l989.She is 14-3 hh. She is lighter boned than Line, has very good hooves. I think her hind leg is a bit too straight, However all of her offspring have very good hindquarters. She was approved for breeding in Norway. Stella has two sons who are 15-2hh, Anvil's Solvaktig (White dun?..no stripe) and Bjorken, light brown dun.
