Clyde the Cob, a tractor, and grass verge canters

Little Clydie Cakes doing a local loop and working really hard on his canters. Getting him to canter undersaddle, in front and on grass verges, its a challenge and we're working on it. We're taking it slowly with him. I like my ponies to respond to my voice as I dont have a lot of strength in one leg.
Still a bit spooked by little and big things, but we're working on them too.
Not the best riders, but we're self taught happy hackers and our ponies are loved and spoilt. #happyhacker #cobs #countryside #canter

Cobs are amazing powerful little horses who are strong, wide, fluffy and not t much taller than ponies, but lots wider,stronger and usually a big taller than 14 hands.Up to 15 hands.
They are sweet, curious, willing, playful kind, tough, can be stubborn, but usually like making relationships with their humans. I love Cobs!!! 🥰👍💗🐴💗

Why is his ears orange ?

[@patriciafarran9742]

I was wondering the same thing. 🤔

It's a ear bonnet, like a little hood that goes over the ears. Keeps flys out 😊

@@diaryofahappyhacker Gives some reasonable visibility to him too, at a distance. I at first thought I need to adjust the colour saturation on my monitor...wherever that is...
