Nice mare and baby! What is a NF? Apparently Wayland Cranberry is one.

He's super-cute, and you can sure tell the foal is his. :)

I could be mistaken, but I think they're rather rare on this side of the Atlantic - they're one of the British native pony breeds. :) I seem to recall reading that there are still feral herds of them, rather like the Chincoteague ponies here in the US.

There are still feral herds of quite a few of the English pony breeds.. Exmoor, Dartmoor, etc.

New Forest ponies are up in the land of Robin Hood.

Hi! Thanks guys - That right...New forest Pony, and they do still wander free but can be baught and tamed as youngsters straight from the forest too...

I was looking for my very own home bred foal from new though, and I wanted something a bit smaller and a bit more sensible and sturdee than my 16hh TB, Unfortunately I think Im gonna have another 16hh nut job on my hands come a few years time but I will love it just the same Im sure - Maybe I will have to get number three and buy a proper little kiddies pony for myself : ) Maybe I had better start playing the lottery...!! :shock:

Watch out for this little girl in the dressage arena in a few years ; )
