From a distance this horse looked peculiar. But then I realized it had a protective net covering most part of  it´s head to keep the flies away. 

Linking up with:  Saturdays Critters

  1. Beautiful horse but I can't imagine that the cover could be comfortable.

  2. I suppose it is better than having flies constantly around your eyes. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

  6. I remember being horrified the first time I saw one of those on a horse. My husband, the former farm boy, had to explain what it was for (and that the horse could still see). ;))

  7. Flies that bite are a huge pain for me when I'm outdoors.

    Can't imagine how bad it is for the poor horses.

  8. Am late, but how serendipitous - I also showed a horse for Eileen's Sat. Critters. Have never seen this protective gear!
