The beckoning call caught the young stallion off his guard and he stood as if he had forgotten how to operate his legs. He had faced many difficult situations before. Why was facing a mare any different? Hesitant, he extended his neck in attempt to catch the unseen mare's scent with little results and eventually started towards her general direction. He stopped only once when he neared the clearing, wondering if he should turn back, nostrils flaring as he inhaled deeply having finally caught her scent. Upon his exhale he nickered, making sure he was heading in the right direction. Should he be defensive? perhaps give her a peace offering?
Stepping through a leafy shrub, he ducked is head to avoid the low hanging branches that offered ripe,red berries to smaller creatures who lived n burrows under the soft grass. A stray branch dragged lightly across his withers and his shook mane to free himself of any more debris as he stepped onto the very edge of the lush field.
( No worries!
This will have to be my last post for the night, it's waaayy past my bed time!)

It's all part of the experience.
