Wicken Fen (3) - Konik ponies: aggressive males

This posture, head down and forward, is saying I'm the boss, you go where I tell you. Strangely, it treminds me of a farmyard goose being aggressive, a similar neck and head alignment.





I hesitated about including this last one. Technically, it's a terrible photo: I was still turning to catch the action that had just started, the horses were moving, there wasn't time to focus the camera . . . but the postures are so expressive that I didn't want to discard it.
