Picture of two horses and a group of walkers on a hillAn encounter between horses and walkers during an Islay walking week a few years ago. This was on the hills between Bruichladdich and Kilchoman, somewhere on the approach to Kilchoman. I believe the horses belong to Rockside Farm.

Laughing Horse at Kilchoman, Isle of Islay

Picture of two horse, one with an open mouth as if it is laughingOK, it might not really be laughing (I don’t know, do horses laugh?) but I think it almost looks like it is laughing out loudly. May be about a joke the other horse told? I captured this scene on a field at Kilchoman, the dunes above Machir Bay are in the background. I believe the horses belong to Rockside Farm.
