Curious Colt [Contest Finalists May 2004]
Uploaded: May 16, 2004 05:17:23
Taken at the Ky Horse Park on a very overcast day. ( I am not at all educated on horses and a little confused over the terms colt and foal.... I do know that this young horse is a male and I think that makes him both a foal and a colt??? Please feel free to correct me if I have this title wrong!)

Thanks so much, Colette and Donna for your comments! I had actually uploaded the wrong file and thought I deleted it quickly enough but you had already commented! (This image is the same except for slight sharpening for the web.) Thanks again,Marie #128366

Thanks, Carolyn! #543075Joy Brown May 16, 2004
Great shot, Marie!!! #543078Amanda E. Radovic May 16, 2004
Lovely image, love the wind in his mane and the curious look in his eye. You are right he is a colt. A foal is a generic baby horse, a colt is a male and a filly is a female. They then become a Mare (female) by 4 and a Stallion (male) or a gelding (also male but castrated). #543119Marie Fields May 16, 2004
Thanks so much, Joy and Amanda! Appreciate the clarification, Amanda!!!Marie #543127
