Getting the dapples early

[newforest]

Just noticed them more over the weekend.

Oh, look at that! Are they coat change dapples?

I guess so. She's had dapples before, but she seems early with her coat.
Summer is gone.

Hogan's summer coat is coming out too. Interestingly, I was commenting to my friend that he's remained blacker this summer, he usually goes dark bay, then black in the winter.

Interesting you say that Huggy, my friend said yesterday that her mare has stayed black this summer, her summer coat is usually a lovely rich brown.

Belles dapples haven’t changed nor has her coat colour, but she’s most definitely shedding.

Must be the extreme weather

Must be the extreme weather

I did wonder that.
If the trees have died off because they have got stressed, it will have influenced nature as a whole?

 

[Huggy]

I read that the trees are shedding their leaves to survive. I'll be interested to see if our dead shrubs in the garden come back.

She's got more since the other day, but it's rained.
I like her dappled.
