With his head up and his front leg likewise up, I think you're right about his attitude.

What are the flies like in your area now? Ours have been terrible--fly spray is like an hors d'oeuvre before they get to the horse meat!

Does that keep insects off? Because it looks like there’s insects all over it.

Lovely animal.

Come summertime horses get their fly masks on. The masks are effective in keeping flies from their faces. Thank You!

He does indeed look rather jaunty in this photo! It’s fun to recognize animals’ personalities, and you captured Bailey’s so well in this photo!
