Fly Swatting Distinctively

Abby has a very distinctive fly swatting method.

 Straight up and down!

I can always pick her out of the herd, even when the horses are far out in the pasture and gathered together. I just look for the tail that is going up and down instead of side to side.

Pictures taken from the day she was rescued show the same thing.

That's her in the middle - see that tail? (Notice she's pointing her left front hoof - they'd chopped off the slippered part and she was hurting. Poor girl!)

Here one of the rescuers is giving her some food. And there goes the tail!

Just one of those fun quirks that make Abby who she is!
