Shedding Season!

This is the time of year when horses' coats look long, dull and dry, and are often crusty with mud. Abby and her herd mates are no exception.
 (I still think she's beautiful, even with that winter coat.)

 I always pet her and give her some scratching while we visit. Today, this happened:
 Hair was coming out wherever I scratched her!
Her face, her neck and shoulders, under her jaw... goodbye winter hair! (Boy, did Abby enjoy the scratching.)

I have a meeting after school tomorrow so I may not be able to curry her until Friday. But she's going to get a good grooming soon!
