Crazy wind here in the Cape last night and today! It has ripped the roof off one of the horse shelters.
Fortunately the two new shelters stood their ground so they still have shelter from the rain that is arriving.
The horses are all safe and no injuries π All they were worried about this morning was why we were taking so long with their breakfast (while clearing their feeding stalls of roof sheets and debris so they could come in to eat!)

We had a little visitor at the horses today... it seemed a little lost but on a mission to get somewhere π€ #capedunemolerat #moderate #wildlife #horses #stellenbosch

We hope everyone in the cape is safe and we send out our thoughts to those who were adversely affected by the flooding in areas π€

The blue cranes have returned to their annual nests and there are beautiful eggs waiting to hatch. Can't wait to see the teeny tiny little chicks soon!

Fleur was so eager to go out on a ride today he was trying to get his own saddle out of his bag βΊοΈ

This brief moment of brotherly love was short-lived in the reunion between Fleur and Nantes. Younger brother Nantes returned after some time away training, and this quickly escalated into a brotherly brawl.

Our beautiful Nantes is back from his time training with Lize-Marie at LM Horsemanship, getting him ready for his new job. We've taken him out on the trails the last few days and he is ready to join the team on our rides. Look what a good boy he is π₯°
