Beauty, just sheer beauty!
#1


These horses were originally bred as "war horses" in the days of knights and armour. As armour got heavier, bigger horses were needed and the Friesian almost became extinct. They are back and are one of the most beautiful horses in stature as well as gait.

Just watching them becomes an emotional experience. Can you imagine what it would be like to ride one? Their manes and tails are the longest that are to be seen and when performing on grass, their hoofs do not kick up a divot, as they land flat footed.

Creatures such as these are what makes this world so special. What gorgeous animals!!

These horses are native to the Netherlands.





Have the sound turned on.

In my younger horse riding day I used to ride bareback. There's nothing like it. You feel totally at one with the horse. I wish I had the opportunity to do that with one of these. It would be quite an experience.

I've been on a horse twice in my life. I never liked it.
I just didn't feel as if I had anything to hang on to :S

Beautiful majestic animals. Puts the human race in a terrible perspective, to think that we would nearly drive such a race extinct just because they couldn't carry battle armor!?
