What are you foraging this abundant season? Sometimes I am just foraging for beauty, though usually for food or medicine. These flowers are bridal veil spirea, hellebore, magnolia buds, and daffodils. I love to keep fresh bouquets in front of our inherited Belle Golinko painting.

Turn up the volume to hear him crunching while doing what he does best...foraging! We all know that horses eat grass, but as you can see here they get a lot of other plants into their digestive system like plantain- which is really good for them! You can see a little bit here when they get plants that they don't want in their mouth or dirt from the roots, they let it drop back out. Their sensitivity and ability to sort individual leaves with no hands really astounds me.
