Everyone went out into the big hill field after breakfast.
Sheep, horses, ponies.

There was a weird eerie light this morning, when I went to fetch the buckets in to wash before putting them away. The “big” horses had let themselves out and looked very picturesque in …My Shetland

I think the old horses and ponies are looking just right now. I was worried about them too after the harsh winter.

I went with my usual buckets at breakfast-time and found no one waiting by the gate so I had to shout, hoping I wasn’t in for a long walk looking for everyone. The horses and ponies duly appe…My Shetland

We woke up to Shetland covered in thick fog. I know no flights got in or out this morning. But, still, the horses, ponies, sheep, etc managed to find me. There is no escape. I’m sorry, but I…My Shetland

One clean dog. Half an hour later, one filthy dog.

It started well. Bored of no one returning my phone calls, I decided to get some fresh air and set off over the hill with Pepper by my side to take some nice photos of the old horses and ponies, w…My Shetland
My old folks want to break free from #facebook, and i'm helping them get started on the #fediverse. Yay!
Till now I've made them accounts on #mobilizon for groups and events, #loops for short-form video, and #peertube for long-form video.
Now they're getting a #mastodon account to tie it all together, and make conversation.
Question is; on which mastodon instance should they sign up, and who should they follow?
Their main interests are icelandic horses, sheep, sheep dogs / herding dogs and general small-scale animal husbandry. They live in arctic Norway, and their english language is decent.
I've found no starterpacks of accounts about farming, rural life, sheep husbandry, horse riding or dog training. (fedidevs.com/starter-packs/)
Could y'all help them get a great start to federated living by giving some recommendations?

Yesterday, 20 km of #Trailrunning across the #Schöpfl “glacier,” 893 m, with 1,200 m EG. The tour would not have been possible without spikes shoes like our #Icebug. In glorious -5°C weather, we ran once along the entire ridge from east to west, and crossed it once from north to south. We encountered #IcelandicHorses which are actually quite hardy, but they didn't find the strong wind very pleasant.

Icelandic Horses of the East fjords
For centuries, Icelandic horses have been essential partners in rural life across eastern Iceland, valued for their resilience, calm demeanor, and adaptability. In this quiet scene, the horses embody connection, continuity, and the enduring harmony between animals and the landscapes of the East fjords.
