Baby News!

The stork has blessed us with two arrivals recently.  First, a fourth of July baby, a black colt out of DB Dharma (Desert Dhelall X Sindidans Amiraa) and Aswad Khayal (Aswad Sihr X Bint Rivanna).  Mom and baby are doing wonderfully, but they aren't helping out this photographer by being close by when I happen to come by with my camera, lol.  Until I can get some close ups, we'll have to be content with these teeny tiny views - mom was drinking out of a pond in her pasture and baby was splashing in the water.  It was very cute - its times like those I wish I had a monster zoom on my camera.

And more recently (3 days ago in fact) GR Desert Farasha (Desert Jalam X DB Fabayah, tail female line to Maahra) brought a bouncing filly into this world who is just all legs.  A pretty chessie with cute little pink nose.  This filly is by DB Ibn Najem Huda (DB Najem Huda X DB Jamala - tail femail strain is Dahmah) and is gorgeous just like both her parents.  Welcome to this world little girl!  And first time mom, Farasha, is doing an amazing job, standing super still when baby girl is trying to get the hang of playing "now where did those udders go again?".
