Horse Birthday Kisses Card

Pucker up! If you get close enough, this young horse will deliver sloppy birthday kisses. Facing the camera, this light brown colt with three white socks and a white face blaze, is caught in the act of shaking his head and getting ready to smooch. He stands at the edge of a grassy field covered with the white, fluffy heads of dandelions gone to seed. Behind him, you can see the grey, weathered fence frame that encloses heavy chicken wire, and through that, more grass and dandelions. A bit of short, black mane shows at the top of the baby's head and at the side of his neck. This photograph was taken somewhere near Mt. Vernon, WA. Copyright Gail Storrs 2009.
