Mammals Wild Ponies of Assateague

[Hali]

Stallion and his foal having a bit of fun on the beach at the end of the day. They are both very wet due to a huge thunderstorm and an inch of rain that fell within 20 minutes. The foal promptly took a nap on the sand after they finished their little romp. They call them Ponies because of their size but they are actually horses. Over the centuries the poor quality of the grasses and the high salt content in the grass and waters have reduced their size and tend to give them a very barrel shape, but they are genetically horses not ponies.

Sorry for the delay,
This was with a EOS R so there wasn't a case mode, That camera didn't have them, but the tracking sensitivity was set all the way to the left, Accel/decel tracking was all the way to the right and AF pt auto switching was set to 1.
The Deets are ISO 3200 f/5.6 1/1600 sec. I was shooting Aperture priority.
