#Farriers are part #veterinarian part #blacksmith. The full restoration includes removing the old #horseshoe, #cleaning out embedded soil, carving off excess material, customizing the metal’s shape and contours, and attaching the shoe with nails, all while understanding the physical needs of that particular #horse.

Today's horsie pic is a early Greek vase from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Look at this outstanding horsie!

His eyeball is a circle on top of his head. He must be standing on a hill and his teamster is shouting at him. Yet he maintains his dignity.

Note also the chick behind the two dudes in the chariot. She is *phenomenal*

My notes just say 'very early Greek vase' but not the date. Dang previous me!

On a more serious note, what's up with rich people using horses as a currency?

You would think a house would be able to stand on its own without needing to have horses and their maintenance crews thrown in to sweeten the deal.

Maybe it's just me, but having horseshit "scented" ambiance wafting around all day long doesn't seem all that luxurious. 🤷

Good morning, FediFriends ☕ ☕ 🐕 🐕 💞 💞

For #WedsNeigh here is a picture of me and the dude and Azhi Baba (the grey) and Fallon (the bay) in front of the Great Pyramids in Feb., 2003.

We had an invite from a friend who was living in Cairo, and when she asked me about itineraries I said "if I could ride an Arabian horse in Egypt I will be happy". She knew some people who ran a non-terrible riding concession at the Great Pyramids, and my dream came true.

#Horses are maybe the most studied #fossil #mammals (I did 1/3 of my dissertation on them!). They've been central to understanding #evolution for as long as #evolutionary #biology has existed, so it was thrilling to see #zebras, the most widespread wild #equids, upon arriving in #Zambia!

Two horses have perished in recent day
At the famed Churchill Downs they lay
Losing life at a Kentucky course
After being run with such force
It saddens us in so many ways
Our hearts heavy and burdened with days
Remembering these lost precious souls
