Description
In all the years I've been photographing these wild horses, I rarely see them in the badlands. And I've never seen two stallions battle so close to the edge of a sandstone ledge, that I have to cover my eyes for fear one will fall and break a leg.
That's just what happened on this morning when the pinto band stallion, TNT Dynamite, took a shine to the stallion, Kiamichi's black mare. As Kiamichi galloped in to break up the flirtation, TNT lunged at him, nearly pushing him backwards over the ledge. I know all is fair in love and war, but that just seemed a little too much. Thankfully, the battle was over almost as soon as it began. After a few bites and squeals, both stallions returned to their families, leaving me to catch my breath after all the excitement.
