Yes....I'm Beautiful!

This is a head shot of Billy Bob…a pony who lives a few roads over from me in Amherst, Virginia. I go to visit him sometimes and he always comes up to the fence to greet me. So friendly and curious. And he knows he’s beautiful! :))

    Oh there he is again…I really love the contrast between green and Billy Bob!!!
    I think he is saying something…Maybe “Where’s my carrot!?”

  • Ginny York replied

    LOL I have tons of pictures of this little guy. I love him! In the winter he gets fuzzy…but he doesn’t have the fuzziness now that it’s Spring. I like him against the green too. I think you might be right about him asking for a carrot. I have fed them to him before and he loves them. The owner came by when I was there yesterday when I took this and asked me not to feed him. Hmmmm. I will have to be sneaky. lol

    WOW! Billy Bob is handsomer than the actor. Wonderful capture. I Love your horse.

  • Ginny York replied

    Thanks so much!!! I wish he was my horse…but he is a little horse who lives a few roads over from me. I go by and see him every now and then. And of course…I take my camera. He loves to have his picture taken. lol Thanks for adding him to your favorites!!!

  • FlowersEtc

    FlowersEtc

    If you haven’t talked with the owner, you should maybe they would let you ride him. He seems to lik you a lot

  • Ginny York replied

    Thanks again!!! The owner has come by a couple of times when I have been out there taking pictures and asked me not to feed him! So I doubt she will want me to ride him. lol But that’s ok. I will settle for pictures of him. :)) He does like me. Whenever I go to visit him…he comes right up to the fence. And it’s like he’s posing for the camera. LOL I will still try to sneak him an apple or a carrot and maybe a lump of sugar. :)) He’s so cute!

  • FlowersEtc

    FlowersEtc

    That is a shame she isnt very friendly, of course she is just portecting this beauitful horse. You and I would probably do the same.

  • Ginny York replied

    She really was pretty friendly. She just said that he would eat all day if people kept feeding him. :)) But I don’t think 1 apple or carrot would hurt!! :))

  • Gene Praag
  • Ginny York replied

    Thanks so much Gene! What an honor! This guy is a really friendly little pony and I’m so happy to see him featured!!

  • FlowersEtc

    FlowersEtc

    :)) Have fun sneaking to see your friend

  • Ginny York replied

    LOL Well his pasture is right next to the back road he’s on…but if the owner sees me out there she comes out sometimes. I guess she is making sure I don’t feed the little guy. :))

  • Irene  Burdell
  • Ginny York replied

When he is out. Last time I went by he wasn’t out so I was dissapointed…but I did get some other horses out down the road a little farther. Thanks so much for making him a favorite! He really does love the camera and can make some poses!
