Does anybody have an interest in catching her and taming her? She is certainly young enough to learn and have a better life than she would have in the wild.

And for sticking around a while so she could see that humans aren't so bad, even they left her alone in the wilderness. I hope you will continue to report on her progress, although it may be difficult when the grass greens and she is able to graze as she pleases. Will anyone bring her feed then? I'm also wondering if she will hook up with other herds of horses ... will the ones that were taken away return to this range when spring gets a better foothold? I appreciate knowing that dedicated souls saw her through the winter and she now has a chance. Thank you for checking on the abandoned filly.

"Thankful" reminds me to be grateful for such things in my life as food, companionship and warmth :) Beautiful photos as usual!
