What a lovely photo of the ponies and the dunes. Wonderful to see and to know they also serve a purpose to keep the dunes. What a great place to wander and recuperate.
Awesome photo Alexander! And, what an unique pony meeting!!
Lovely ponies who are supporting a great biodiversity purpose . . . on Schouwen-Duivenland. (Including the Highland cattle and Shetland pony herd, quite a family)
The Exmoor is a rare breed, there are only some 800 ponies globally and less than 40 Exmoors in North America.(Currently)
Take a tour into these remarkable ponies lives with this Wikipedia article. This article gives a vast description and history!
Those beautiful dunes & beautiful ponies! What a gorgeous photo they make!
I didn’t realize the ecological value the ponies bring to the dunes. Very interesting & the pleasure they add to your walk when you happen upon them. But why only ladies? Seems a bit sexist, doesn’t it? :)

Good to see that you are up and about enjoying your walks!
How interesting that they were introduced to help retain the ecological balance of the dunes.
What a great way to achieve this. And the Highland Cattle are an added bonus - at least they would be for me. They are just too cute.
What a stunning pictures as well. Can't believe that you live within walking distance of this little pond. That's amazing. Thank you for sharing.
