Two nights ago the phone rang at midnight. It was my neighbor from up the road.
I asked, more like begged, to be on her call list.
She had rescued a pregnant pony which she named Felicity, and she was due any day.
When I arrived the foal, a little filly, was just born and making her first attempt to stand up.
It was amazing. We watched and marveled at the pair for quite a while.
The vet soon arrived, all was well and everyone was filled with happiness.
It was hard to take pictures. The light was dim and they were moving around quite a bit,
but the grainy pictures have their own charm, don't you think?

My goodness, how absolutely adorable and magical! Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful photographs. Totally precious.
louise: it was magical. Truly amazing. I went up to see them yesterday and baby girl was out in the pasture with her mama, running, bucking and bouncing all around!
So sweet! How lucky for you to see her newly born, finding her legs, and then to see them in the pasture together. Mother Nature is amazing. Thanks for sharing.
