On 4 November, Zara also had a bay filly from Rev. I named her Esmeralda. Like Carinita, she is a very nice looking filly, and to say I'm happy with both is a very big understatement.

Foals!
On 31 October, Esperanza had a bay filly foal from Rev (Reverende de United (Imp.USA)). I named the filly "Carinita NS" in honour of her maternal granddam R-N's Carinita. Young Carinita looks very much like gran, which makes me happy, as gran was a fine horse indeed and I loved riding that mare.

Sad news
Guardaraya had a premature filly foal (to Reverende de United). Unfortunately, the filly had several issues to to being so early, and we had to let her go the following day. This was Rev's first foal in Australia, and it was a good looking filly.
I am now eagerly awaiting the arrival of two other Rev foals, due in late October.

a welcome arrival
Gitana surprised us with an early filly today. She did a magnificent job as a maiden mare. The other mares stayed away, with one on "aunty duties", keeping the more curious ones away.
The filly is a good size and looks like she may be a dark buckskin. But she may also be brown. A bit hard to tell on the first day, and time will tell. But dad (Chango) is buckskin, so the yellow nose and slightly yellow cannons might indicate that she is heterozygous for the cream dilution.
Not that we care, what matters is that she is healthy, active and apparently well gaited. I think we'll call her Graciela.

another foal safely arrived
This morning saw the arrival of the second foal for the season.
Flamenca (aka MGR La Tigre - Imp.USA) had a bay colt from Compay. He's a good looking little lad. I'm glad that Flamenca waited until today, as we've had wet and miserable weather the last few days.

foal!!
Samba had a lovely big and strong palomino colt this morning. The sire is Chango NS, our buckskin Peruvian Paso stallion. Samba is pure Paso Fino. The colt is already showing perfect gait.
The photo was taken this morning, when he was only a few hours old. More photos coming soon :-) And a name!
More photos here. (Thanks, Yvonne :-) )
